The White House has been fielding proposals aimed at persuading people to marry and have children, an effort being pushed by outside groups focused on increasing the nation’s birth rate after years of decline.
One such proposal that has been pitched to White House advisers is a $5,000 “baby bonus” to every American mother after she gives birth.
“Sounds like a good idea to me,” President Donald Trump said Tuesday when asked about a $5,000 incentive for new mothers.
A healthy nation has babies and we want to have policies that encourage families. Bribing new moms with $5k does not fix the underlying forces for why people are having fewer babies. Focus on policies that lower the cost of living, make housing more affordable, and stop with the apocalyptic global warming nonsense. We don’t need more welfare. We need a more stable, prosperous nation. Then the babies will come.
Stop F’n spending!!! Jeezuz.
