Get rid of the baby bonus
Looks like the goverment is considering means testing the baby bonus. While this is an improvement on middle class welfare, they should get rid of it entirely. A low population density is the key to our high quality of life. Breeding faster will not improve our quality of life, especially if the extra kids are born to parents who would not have had the child if it weren't for the handout. The government is already anticipating (and budgeting for) a huge icnrease in 'learning difficulties' in our schools as a direct result of this absurd social engineering project.

Re: Get rid of the baby bonus
We are going to have another baby, so I say double, now wait, triple, no wait quadruple, no just triple (I am not greedy) the baby bonus to 15 grand.
Do it for the good of society.
My kids are going to be fighting your wars.
Hopeful you will not be their enemy.
You WILL LOOSE!

Spoken like a true Doc who could not make it as a pediatrician and so became a researcher assigned to the case of how to make a new flavour flav of Yogurt.

Given the shape of Mattus' head, I think we should rename it the "Calimari Bonus."
