FULL TITLE: Top Dem candidate gave millions to groups advocating for taxing families 'to the hilt' for 'irresponsible breeding'
Scott Wallace, a liberal millionaire candidate running for Congress in Pennsylvania, has given millions of dollars to so-called population control groups.
Such groups have advocated for taxing parents “to the hilt” for having more than two children, calling it “irresponsible breeding,” and said abortion is “a highly effective weapon” to combat overpopulation.
Wallace, grandson of a former vice president who’s running as a Democrat in Pennsylvania's 1st Congressional District against Republican incumbent Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, has been in charge of the the Wallace Global Fund "for the last two decades" that gave out nearly $7 million to population control groups since 1997.

Ah... a grandson of the notorious, communist-leaning former VP Henry Wallace.
Didn’t I just read something about the birth rates in America steadily declining since the 50’s?
Point two - those responsible for breeding like rabbits do not pay taxes. In fact, the reason many of them continue to reproduce is to receive more in taxes.
“Irresponsible breeding”? Can anyone say “gay weirdo”?
Families who are able to support their own kids, without taxpayer support, should have as many kids as they want to.
Women who expect taxpayers to pay for raising their kids, should not have any kids.
Over the last 10 years, I’ve read quite a bit about Henry A Wallace. In some respects, he was a remarkable man - when it came to ag-related matters. He was the father of corn hybridization as well as responsible farming techniques that helped reduce erosion and improve yields.
His politics were Far Left - far enough that even FDR subtly found a way to remove him from the 1944 ticket. I never viewed Wallace as a Communist sympathizer or even a Communist himself. But during his Progressive Party run for the White House in 1948, he unfortunately surrounded himself with a number of fellow travelers who had bad influence over him. He refused to repudiate them and that hurt him immensely.
In later years, he wrote an article for a magazine in which he basically said that he was duped by the Russians while he was VP and didn’t realize the extent of how bad Stalin really was. The article was entitled “Where I Was Wrong”.
He walked away from the Progressive Party in in 1956, endorsed Eisenhower and in 1960, endorsed Nixon. For the remainder of his life, he considered himself an anti-Communist. At the end of his life, he allowed himself to be used more or less as a medical guinea pig so that doctors could hopefully treat ALS (which he contracted) for future generations.
I can’t say with 100% certainty but I think he’d be appalled at what his grandson was saying and doing.
Dontcha love it when they keep talkin’?
Gotta make more popcorn!
And Maxine Drips & Slurs Peonlosi: Go girls!!!
Lovin’ every minute of it.
Yep. That’s part of the DNC’s base. What they want to stop is white, conservative, Evangelical Christians from breeding. Thereby cutting down on the number of Conservative voters and the number of dependents they can write-off, and thus giving them a bigger pool of tax dollars to draw from. Killing two birds with one stone.
I agree HW was deep in knowledge about ag issues, especially in the wheat industry. But for his claim to be duped by the Soviets... not sure I believe that one...
You’re only supposed to have kids if you’re dependent on the government, so you’ll stay dependent. Otherwise, you must abort.

Responsible whites who are expected to be a minority soon.
What is his position on immigration?
There, I fixed it for you.
Yup - that was it. What used to be considered the normal, average American and Canadian. Responsible people in intact families who will raise their children to be good God fearing and responsible citizens. The makings of a solid nation.
We could cut US population 5-10% by getting rid of illegal aliens.

Not sure what this has to do with a discussion of Henry Wallace and his grandson running for Congress but fixation on the birth rate is not important. Having said this, one of the primary reason the birthrate is declining is that the teen birthrate is declining. Which we should consider to be a good thing.
