re: Hot take: Could you break the poverty cycle by offering free vasectomys?

They should already send out birth control pills with every welfare check going to a female and condoms to every check going to a male.

But incentivizing vasectomies for only welfare/medicaid/food stamp recipients is the way to go. $10,000 per. We'd be saving a whole lot of money in the long run. Think about how many kids that would prevent from tax payers having to finance.

And they can't say it is racist because more white people are on government assistance.

Medicaid had more than 70 million beneficiaries in 2016, of whom 43 percent were white, 18 percent black, and 30 percent Hispanic. Of 43 million food stamp recipients that year, 36.2 percent were white, 25.6 percent black, 17.2 percent Hispanic and 15.5 percent unknown.
