I dont get mad at a dog for barking, but i've listened to quite a bit of critique about how alot of this family busting, and promoting of the "nobility" of single motherhood started as a concerted effort of using government subsidies to incentivize black women using black men as disposable sperm donors with the support of the welfare/child support system. Once proven successful in the black community, this effirt was then expanded to include the rest of us.
If we abolished child support, and withheld welfare stipends for only the most abject cases of need, such as widowing, or unavoidable incarceration, I think we could turn the trending phenomenon of single motherhood around, but why would the government do that?
From what I understand the government generally takes a rake of 2 to 3% on monthly child support withholding garnished for mothers. Sure, occasionally the law decides against and for the father in cases where extreme neglect can be proven, but by and large the feminine priveledge is still very much alive in our family court system, so I dont see this changing.
Furthermore, why would it change? Strong nuclear families are much more difficult to indoctrinate.
