Ban Freedom. Beg for Fertility? Offered $5K, try $545K. We Are Not Going Back!

You Want More Babies? Start Respecting Women. Let’s not sugarcoat it: $5,000 for a baby is a joke. It’s not policy—it’s propaganda. If you think American women are going to sacrifice their bodies, careers, and futures for pocket change, you don’t just misunderstand economics—you misunderstand us. We’re not fooled. We’re not flattered. And we are done being treated like wombs with wallets. Here Are the Facts (at $15/hour—because that’s the minimum it actually takes to live in this country): • Pregnancy (6,720 hours): $100,800 • Giving Birth: $18,865 • Postpartum Recovery (6 months of unpaid, round-the-clock care): $65,700 • Raising a child to age 6: $90,000 • Raising a child from ages 7 to 18: $216,000 Total Cost to Bring a Life Into the World and Raise It: $545,798. And that’s before factoring in a cost-of-living increase every single year. And you’re offering five. thousand. dollars? You want to increase birth rates? Great. Start by: • Restoring our freedom to control our own bodies • Protecting marriage equality, not legislating over love • Respecting the right to stay single—or to leave unhealthy marriages • Funding real parental leave, not handing out symbolic medals Let’s be honest: You’ve outlawed reproductive care. You’ve criminalized miscarriage. You’ve made pregnancy more dangerous than it’s been in decades. And now you expect a generation of women to roll over and reproduce for the state? That’s not pro-life. That’s pro-control. Until your agenda comes with real policy, real support, and real respect, you’ll keep getting the same answer from us: No. We are not incubators. We are not fools. And we are not for sale.
