Women on welfare have an incentive to have kids. More kids mean more $$$ from the nanny state.

What you say is true. I am not defending out-of-wedlock births among America's disenfranchised, but rather trying to explain the problem in cultural terms for some on this board whose entire lives have been spent in the suburbs.

I think it is slightly more accurate to say that in many lowerclass families, sad to say, there is very little love. These girls look to babies as a way of finding love in their lives. Remember, there is a reason why many of these people have been unsuccessful in negotiating life's waters and it often has to do with their habits and attitudes. Often times extremely negative. Young kids brought up in such an environment often look to things we consider strange for their "worth". Where babies are looked upon as signs of success it is IMO amongst the sloven young impregnators who equate sperm discharge with manhood. They have many fine examples in their lives as well. Sad subject really.
