#7  So, can the expectant 'birthing person' collect the stipend for 8 months and then have a late term abortion - funded by the Gov't? Asking for a friend.

Exactly my first question.

#6   Muslims it seems are having no trouble having children. Those I have seen having 2-3. One family from Nepal had six children I saw recently. The more educated in this country the less interest in having a family or children. So for a woman the best years for bearing children are passed to promote slavery to a profession whatever that may be.

#4  Going to guess this will be about "knocked up" status, not "married" status.

#3  High mortality rate for vaccinated mothers of babies during pregnancy. No father considered. In today's world $1000 is peanuts when they can get $1500/month from assistance programs. Young people of today chose not to marry, do college, buy a car, rent, purchase a home just do drugs and lay about. Look at the homeless situation. Too many safety nets. Prison is great, three hots and a cot and free medical care. No safety nets in China and the youth are doing the same there.

#2  It seems to me that this might just be a way to increase the voter base as I can see perpetual pregnancies.
