"Infant mortality fight gets $10 million boost in state"

I assume that this is to assure that they survive long enough for us to arrest their mothers for child neglect.

Of course, we could spend $10 million teaching people not to breed irresponsibly, but then that wouldn't guarantee a steady supply of people crippled into dependenccy upon the welfare system.

Babies having babies is the cause of our infant mortality problems. Everyone knows this and acknowledges it privately, but it is politically incorrect to point out the truth these days, so instead we'll throw $10 million at it and pretend that we are doing something to better society.

These blacks claim it's "racism" that causes this. I say, one less beauty salon visit, one less fancy cell phone, one less night on the town drinking, and one less manicure/pedicure and they could afford a bassinet(sp?) and stop rolling over and smothering these infants they continually sleep with in their own beds. Stop blamig everyone for your god damn problems. If this makes me racist, so be it.

We have definitely allowed an entrenched reward system to flourish. If you want ANYTHING to stop, you must make it unpalatable. It may sound cruel, but taking away the rewards for having children, doing drugs and gang banging will soon put the brakes on infant mortality.

The article doesn't mention the percentage of crack babies, or other similarily born addicted children, accounting for the overall percentage.

Once again, focus on the environment that causes this, not on some feel good "hoplessness" nonsense. More handouts will only exacerbate the problem.

There is nothing crueler than bringing a child into this world that is unwanted and uncared for. Stop having babies and foisting the responsibility on others. Stop holding your children hostage in order to swindle the system. Stop banging your own head against the wall while wailing that others are hurting you. If you absolutely cannot accept responsibility for your own life, then off yourself, but please stop maiming your own children.
