We are a selfish animal. How much do we REALLY care about 'society' or those who we'll never meet and who will never reciprocate our 'goodwill' gestures? We actually don't, if we're brutally honest.

The 20th was the first century without widespread slavery throughout the world, and you say it is pain and misery? You wouldn’t know misery if it slapped you in the face. You piss on the grave of every single slave and so many other real victims throughout human history when you say it used to be so much better. You have no tangible examples of civilizations that were “based on life” rather than work. The history of humanity is working and grappling for what we can to survive the best we can. Why do you think nearly every major civilization has had slavery? Because the strong take advantage of the weak yes, but also because it takes a ton of work to maintain civilization. Some are fortunate enough to be able to enjoy significant portions of their work nowadays, but to many it remains just survival as it always has. If you think working for a living means you have no life, we’ve been at peace for far too long.

As a parent I can say raising kids is the most difficult thing I've ever had to do. The most expensive in terms of time, money, and energy as well. Just incredible amount of resources to get them to learn and do basic things, to be fed, to be potty trained, to eat reasonable food -- they don't come "pre-programmed" to do these things in a "normal" way. It's truly incredible. That Welfare Mom or any Mom or any parent at all regardless of sex, merely raising kids who don't contribute to society is a net negative if they tax society. So there's some extra context. Yes, it's very hard work, but have to also produce citizens who have ethics, both moral and work ethic to contribute to society.

Knowledge, Intellect takes a slow absorption of those such as Neitzche "God is dead and we have killed him", Kropotkin, Prudhomme, Solzanitkin, Goldman, Debbs, IWW, the resources are plentiful, the requirement is that you do the work. It will not be spoon fed to you, I am EXTREMELY SCEPTICAL, of anything spoon fed as being remotely true, or valuable information. Fact is there are many, people who think, and live, highly self educated intellectual lives as logical empowered humans. You must seek them out, "Wilsonian" and "Reagans Police State" policies are finely honed weapons against Anarchists, Socialists(fyi no authoritarian anything can ever be good), Communists, hell anything but the status qoue is to be instantly, and harshly, ostracized thanks to Mandatory Factory Public Schooling. So seek us out, turn off any form of media, distance yourself from the electronic illusions, and soon with some effort you will find there are more folks then you ever thought possible just like Chomsky, only still physically active in bringing darkness to light.

As I veiw the assinine assumption that arbitrary monetizing of humanity, makes absolutely no sense. No man created mankind therefore man is priceless. Clearly life is a miracle, a priceless miracle. That said, consider that a mother brings a child into this world, through some miracle it survives and enters society. So then the task of making children, then raising children with the greater good for society in mind is perhaps entirely the very most valuable thing a mother or father can do in this world. The current lifestyle of stress, over work, insecurity of all required items for survival, contradiction, and outright systemic violence, is just ruthless nonsense. Once again proving that illusions of govt authority being necessary in any way shape or form, is laughable that we have allowed govt to continue this long. If its not clear by now that govts, or any psuedo authority can or will actually do anything for the majority, is just plain ignorant.

The government of China did an amazing work of lifting the nation out of poverty and transforming it into the tech giant it has become. I believe the fault lies in the election system, where it is absolutely vital to get the vote under the time constraint given where it drives people to desperate measures where you accept sponsors because money = tv time, pr and marketing for yourself which are the most important aspects for a presidential candidate. And then when you are elected you are indebted to your sponsors (these are big oil, big pharma etc corporations) and you do what they want. (cutting taxes etc). And then the next election in 4 years you need money again. Its a vicious circle where no good work to benefit the average citizen ever gets done. If it is done then the next elected official undoes the work because they got elected because of corporate money. I believe the way out is to choose a good person based on their life's work and values and set them as president for life. Sorry i know this was out of the blue but I have had this conclusion for our way out in the US and UK from false prophet leaders like Barack Obama and our current situation with Brexit and Trump.

A parent who tutors and helps them with homework after school, teaches them practical life lessons (who here has had their parents explain how taxes work?), providing healthy social activities, a stimulating environment, food that isn't just a boiled hotdog wrapped up in a white bread bun, then yes being a mother could be considered full time work.

While there are plenty of good, struggling, often single parents, there's plenty who use the idea of welfare or child support as incentive to lay around and pop out kids. Kind of anecdotal, but not all moms are made equal. There's plenty like mine and all my friends', who would sooner pocket the money for booze, cigarettes, and partying and essentially leave their kids to die - literally. So while it's true rearing children isn't economically considered, measured, or valued, it's tricky finding a way to go aout making it so.

"Raising the child, admittedly, requires effort, but it's basically a private hobby," what an absurd statement, you are comparing raising a human to playing an instrument or a sport. Raising a child is a 24 hour a day job of taking care of a fragile human that depends on you for it every need. Until the children are of schooling age to be able to be under the supervision of a teacher of 8 hours a day women don't get any breaks. Hobbies are peoples breaks that they do for some fun and respite, raising children is not a lighthearted break from the stresses of life. Men like you are the reason so many women are going childfree. It'S NoT a ReAL JoB, It'S a HobBY. Just say you think that you think it's a woman's role to take care of the children because its a fun hobby for them and therefore they don't deserve compensation or recognition for their efforts and go.

An apple does not contribute to society anywhere near the level of what a well raised human being can do. That child HAS to become part of society. By investing in mothers, and parents for that matter, we are investing in something that will benefit the country, society and shit, even the world. To call raising children "a private hobby", is a weird take on something that greatly effects everyone else, when looked at from a macro level.

Nonsense Noam, no one is forcing women to have children. But we are forced to work or live a life in the margins. Single mothers aren't ostracized, in fact they're taking care of with anti male legislation like alimony and child support (what amounts to years of financial slavery for men) and the possibility to send your children to daycare. People come up with the vilest language when talking about unemployed men but I have yet come across a person who called housewives and single mothers ''bums'' and ''parasites'' (which you are if your forcing a man to pay for the next 18 years while the mother does nothing.)

Raising children as a means of contributing to the rate of capital, is all well and good IF the parents are doing a satisfactory job of raising the child.

So stupid. Having babies doesn’t inherently bring economic value. You have to train them. Also you save money when you care for children versus paying someone else to care for them.

what if they arent being raised adequately because they dont have enough money and then the cost of the issues that arise with an unraised impoverished child after becoming adult is more costly. even if you were a soulless heathen and only cared about saving money theres that argument

You definately should not pay mothers for raising children, the powers that pay the wage will then have the power to jusdge if the job is getting done to a high enough standard that they set. Can you be fired from being a mother if it is a job? Can you evaluate the wage based on the final outcome? Noam says some silly things but to pay woment to raise children because that are working a job is insane and he should have a good shove around for that alone.
