    I’m not trying to take anyone’s “rights to reproduce,” I just don’t want someone reaching onto my wallet to incentivize increased population because its a stupid thing to do that harm humanity in the long run

    This is coming from somene who supports things like single-payer universal healthcare, broad financial support for education, ensuring housing for people, etc.

      How is giving fathers a bit of extra time off incentivising increasing the population??? They were going to have the child anyway!

      It’s not reaching into your wallet, it’s everyone’s. And the cost is far offset by the taxes levied on that child when it starts work anyway.

        Its right there in what you typed, its giving them time off. That’s what inventivizes them.

        I’m part of everyone, so yes, it’s reaching into my wallet.

          No it isn’t. I speak from personal experience. Twice.
