    If you’re making 150k per year and “living paycheck to paycheck” you suck with money, full stop.

    That’s more than double median household income

      This is out of touch. There is a huge number of factors that dictate what amount of money is enough to live a fulfilled live. A bachelor can live a fulfilled life on 30k a year and still save money, but a family of 5 can definitely be living paycheck to paycheck on 150k, especially if they live in an expensive area.

          Do you not live in America? Children are not a choice is a country that doesn’t enshrine access to abortion.

                Look, I’m not arguing that restricting access to abortions is stupid. Of course it is.

                But having children in our day and age is of course a choice. There are countless contraceptives available and what you mention are merely edge cases that are not responsible for people not being able to make a living because they pop out children non-stop.
