What is your opinion on a policy that would limit a person to one child if that person if that person accepted welfare?

If you are currently receiving welfare from the state you are not allowed to have more than one child. It is essentially China's one child policy but only applied to those who receive state welfare

They could be take off welfare if they have a second child or continue on welfare if they get there tubes tied or a vasectomy

Lmao. If it were to be passed, I feel like it would be the best way to shift the population to traits that capitalism deems is best

According to the washpo [first thing that comes up on google] only 21.3% of people are on welfare. I think if people didn't instantly infer this to be an attack on POC it would stand a chance. Even though arguing against this policy based on racism is basically saying POC's have no agency. I think anyone who advocates this policy would be instantly deemed a racist.

What would be the argument against this policy other than you are racist?

@What Would Jack Conte Do? People on welfare are more incentivized to have children because they receive additional benefits for each child they have

If the policy i proposed wouldn't pass eliminating welfare definitely wouldn't. There would be riots if you outright eliminated welfare. My proposed policy would atleast sustain those who are on it while preventing the birth of more future welfare recipients.

Elimination of welfare or My proposed policy?

I think it would be less than out right elimination of welfare, and the continuation of current welfare problem is just allows the problem to grow

What would be the non bar convo solution?

Eliminating welfare would cause mass riots and watching the system collapse would lead to dumping of even more tax money into the system until we are all fucked

There needs to be a weening off period or we are fucked either way

In plain english?

googled it you dont have to explain

Isn't the outright elimination of welfare the is-ought argument?

Doesn't my policy provide a path way to go from welfare to a diminished if not eliminated welfare state by not allowing people who require welfare to breed at above replacement rates

Do you know how to invite people to the discord? And do you know what gets people's name on the right? Joined discord yesterday so im a noob

?

Wouldn't any political policy end in an is-ought problem? could you give me an example of one that doesn't?

Thanks

I think classifying any problem as is-ought is useless because it is antithetical discussing any problem to its logical ends. "It's policy, and rarely does it ever achieve what was intended" isn't this just a blanket argument against any policy that doesnt have any real world examples to consider
