Funny how our society gives economic incentive for those in a bad state to bring more into this world in a bad state. It's unfortunate. I wish they gave incentives for hard working people to have more children. We'd end up with more children growing up in healthy environments then in the hood.
I don't know how it is in AU, but in the US, parents who aren't on welfare get MUCH more in tax incentives than welfare parents get in welfare payments. In fact, my "child free" friends are more irate at THOSE government payouts than welfare.

And I won't even bring up how being poor or rich has no bearing on if the environment you grow up in is "healthy".
