You would think the richer you are the more offspring you would have because you could afford it. But because of the inherant stupidity of humans, we have them breeding like roaches in places that can least sustain them.

Welfare pays more when you have more.

Rich assholes are too self absorbed to be parents. Can you imagine Paris Hilton as a mother? No, not me either.

Poor people tend not to use family planning, preferring to leave it to chance.

In the past, rich people used to have more children, but who wants to deal with seven screaming children when you're trying to relax on your 90-foot yacht?

The Kennedy's were an exception of course. I'm sure there are other exceptions as well. Some rich people want to produce a dynasty. Others do not.

I have no clue as to why poor people want to have children.

If I were wealthy, I would'nt mind having 3 or 4 kids. But because I can think properly, I've realised, due to my income, that one is all we can afford and still live reasonably comfortable.

When you're poor, having children is the most powerful and least costly thing you can do.

Re: Why do poor people breed more and rich people breed less?
i think it's education, previous family size, access to info and medical care, and birth control.
wealth begets wealth. you only need one or two kids to inherit wealth. more kids, more money output on them. so keep it small and more money for everyone. also there are more opportunities for birth control, and medical care for women. poor women dont have the access. or education.
she realizes to late she is pregnant again, cant afford abortion. came from a large family so what's one more. also, sex is very comforting when your destitute and have nothing else, sex is free at first, worry about the consequense later. hard to plan for a future when it's not that bright anyway.
my cent and a half.

Yep...when you're poor there's not much else to do to make yourself feel better than to have sex...when you're rich you can do anything you want to.

Re: Why do poor people breed more and rich people breed less?
Rich people don't want to spread the wealth between too many relations - how do you think they got wealthy? From being generous?!

With poor people, the more kids you have, the better the chances that at least one of them will be able and willing to care for you when you're old.

But, realistically - the reasons are different for each person and aech situation. charlie

Maybe rich women don't want to ruin their bodies and don't like feeling or looking fat?

Poor people think with their dicks. Rich people think with their wallet. Everybody else takes it up the ass.

Have you seen any of them regret it?

It's not about sex. They're deliberately having children.
