Wait so the policy is paid for child care, pre-natal and post-natal care, IVF paid for, and cash bonuses.
The punishment for not getting pregnant is not having access to those things.
Why would you need access to baby health care and a child stipend if you donβt have children?
in china it seems like somebody asked "What would encourage an individual to want to carry a child be a parent?"
providing autonomy and agency for the masses through the provision of associated material needs? that's an invitation to trouble!![emoji porky-scared porky-scared](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/93d1747f-2d0a-4a0e-82ff-28cabbcd6471.png)
in the US, to increase birth rates, we use a multipronged strategy:
in this way, there will be many "accidents" that must be carried to term by people with limited resources wracked with shame and guilt, pushing them into even more exploitative arrangements to sell their labor. additionally, the child services / support systems for adoption and foster have been subject to decades of austerity cuts, so the guilt of leaving a child in a "broken" system prevents many from surrendering custody. of course, healthy babies of light complexion are sought out by wealthy whites for rearing/indoctrinating.
Don't you still have access to those things even if you aren't pregnant?
Yes, you still have healthcare, but not for your non existent baby. I donβt understand what the article is complaining about.
