It’s good because raising a child only costs five grand, as we’re all aware.
“im gonna pay you 5 grand to creampie your wife for the economy”
That’ll cover the cost of a child for a whole month.
And for the other 175 months you can just go f yourself because we care about fetuses, we do not care about children
This move will be repealed in 2 weeks.
When a black woman applies for it for triplets.
whispers rapidly “Conditions and restrictions apply”
America is cooked if they think this will solve the baby bust. We’re gonna turn into Japan and South Korea in 40 years
And those that are uneducated or downright stupid will fall for it. Those that aren’t, will continue not to because nobody can afford to have kids and they know 5k doesn’t do shit.
100%. I think I read over the course of life from 0 to 18 years of age it costs about 100K to raise a kid.
Try $300k these days. Double it if you’re in California.
lol. Like making a rent payment solely from the change found in your couch cushions.
Poland went trough this a decade ago. First they offered a small bonus after birth. This didn’t impact the birth rate at all. Next they introduced a monthly allowance per child. This also didn’t impact the birth rate at all. Monthly allowance did lower child poverty rates though.
It won’t
This does not even cover the costs for the birth in hospital.
What’s with the price of $5,000? First it were these checks, and now this…
Nothing like a $5k bonus for accepting a half million liability (at least).
Yeah, the worst part is it’ll just incentivize idiots to breed.
Those are the ones they want
They love the poorly educated.
I want to say “that’s a pathetic amount” but given how many ads I saw offering “cash in hand” for people to refinance their car loan right around Christmas… I’m not confident Americans will turn this down.
Whites only no doubt
Don’t fall for it. Kids cost way more than that.
How much does it cost to even have a baby in a hospital? 🤔
My sister’s girl had a baby boy about 3 years ago.
$0
Phew. 🇨🇦
My co-worker paid $39,000 two years ago. It was ~$25,000 for us ~14 years ago.
And don’t forget the cost of caring for a kid is somewhere in the realm of $10k over the first year.
P.S. Always request an itemized bill from hospitals. Magically the amount owed will go down.
Fuck. When i was born, i had to spend some time in an incubator. My mom fell in a coma and woke up 1 month later. We were in the hospital the whole time.
Tons of exams for my mom …
This would have ruined my parents, if i would have been born in the USA, which almost happened.

That’s without insurance, right?
Yes.
