Even if additional tax revenue all went to poor single mothers —
which it will not — the multiple problems of children raised by poor
single mothers would not be cured by throwing money at them. Indeed, the
skyrocketing of unwed motherhood began when government welfare programs
began throwing money at teenage girls who got pregnant.
Children born and raised without fathers are a major problem to
society and to themselves. There is nothing “fair” about increasing the
number of such children.
