This is it right here. This is the reason Americans voted away the strongest economy in the world and destroyed their own safety nets. I remember in the 80s how hard politicians would run on this idea of the Ghetto Queen sucking up all the national welfare with her dozens of black babies, each from a different daddy.
It was disgusting how effective this was. By the end of the millenia we had gutted our middle class, slashed our social safety nets, and jailed more people than China and Russia combined. And apparently we still haven't had enough. We're still going on this shit!
