| Message | No. We shouldn't be encouraging people who can't afford to have children to have them. That only perpetuates the cycle of poverty as they will have more children than the rich, who will become poorly educated and not be able to escape poverty. |
| Date | 23:09:48, October 30, 2005 CET | From |  Liberal Realism Party | To | Debating the Child benefit |
| Message | Having a child benefit or not having a benefit won't stop Dorvikians from having children, never has never will. The Liberal Realists are not fans of big welfare, but when it comes to poor children, we support this. |
