    Ok, but giving them money is literally rewarding them for these actions. Taking money out of my paycheck via taxes is not the answer

      You should realize it’s going to cost more of your tax money to throw those kids in prison once they have grown into terrible people because they were shunned by society. They aren’t raising your taxes because of this.

      They are taking a bit of tax money that you already have to pay and allocating it to helping people instead of buying another missile with it. It’s not like your taxes would go down if they stopped helping pregnant teens.

      Well if you are so very concerned about the taxpayer dollars you should be a supporter of this. A rubber is a whole lot cheaper than a single teenager mom with baby. It’s thousands of dollars just to birth a baby with a healthy pregnancy.
