Just more stuff to keep you breeding into poverty.

Right, becuase it is surely better for everyone to die childless, and for the humans to become extinct, since we definetly do not live in a period of incredible opulence.

The options are many and not just “breed yourself into poverty” and “everyone die childless until the human race goes extinct”.

I believe that it is the responsibility of society to provide for parents and children. We should make sure raising children is not particularly damaging economically. Saying that they "breed themselves into poverty" is just an excuse not to do that, as it is in this case.

For this reason, commenting "they will breed into poverty" under a post about tax cuts for mothers is quite misanthropic and idiotic, since it will probably decrease poverty.

Better to die childless than produce more slaves for the parasitical oligarch class.

A working class life is not quite worthless. I would not prefer it, but it is still worth living. You must think that too, otherwise you would kill yourself.

Also, they are not slaves in the literal sense, and I suppose, metaphorically, we are all slaves to society.
