I gather you believe that out of wedlock births produce bad social consequences

Yes.

Statistics show (from a Heritage foundation study) that the single most important factor in keeping a child from being raised in poverty is marriage. That is why the Foundation went on record to support single women on welfare not losing their benefits if they married.

It's not the out of wedlock per se it's the poverty that usually, but not always, that accompanies it that is the villian here.

For sure a lot more kids are being raised without the role model of a working father Z(or working relatives) and we ought to be having a national conversation about it.
