Why SHOULD people be paid for having children ?? Especially in a country that is already overpopulated ?? Where do you "revolutionaries" think all the money is going to come from ,during a national financial crisis ? Should the government print more & more banknotes?? (study 1930s Germany).Should EVERYONE in the country be employed as a Civil Servant,with all the perquisites that that entails ?? ( Many of you would like that, I know ! ; who wouldn't ??).
            The answer is for the government to instil,in all individuals,a sense of PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY ; if a couple ( not that there are enough of THOSE these days,thanks to the "Feminists") intend having children,then they should be taught to accept the fact that the annual new car,the 36" -screen TV,the new 3-piece suite,the foreign holidays etc, will have to be put "on hold" for a few years. But that's NOT going to happen if the Government continues to pamper, spoil,and cushion the population against ANY kind of hardship (whether real or just perceived) or adversity ---which in any case,it patently can longer afford to do, as we are ALL in the grip of a MONUMENTAL financial crisis, for God's sake ; are you all BLIND ?? Get real,and come up with some sensible & realistic and practical solutions to the Nation's problems, don't bluster about "demonstrations" that will cause nothing but inconvenience for the general public (as in France)or hostility from the very Government that you want to influence !! Honestly,some of you are acting like petulant children !
