*Irrelevent 

My personal finance is really relevant to the topic.  A man is responsible to provide for his family not the government.  To have an ever expanding family and expect others to support them is wrong.
A man must do what is required to earn a living wage and advance their salary/career....2nd job, education in trade, academics, leadership, management...etc
Tax credit could disappear with the stroke of a pen.  It is an added bonus when available but should never be considered income to support your family.

Likewise, food stamps or free medical care could disappear with the stroke of a pen. Why is that not an "added bonus when available"? I don't understand what the significant difference is between the cash assistance vs. food assistance vs. medical assistance.

Not to mention, to sign up for temporary  unemployment/ welfare benefits with the true intention of accepting those benefits as a permanent assistance or source of income is fraudulent.  Committing fraud is a sin.

If the intention of the program is temporary assistance, then you would not be able to receive it for longer than the time limits without doing something illegal. I'm pretty sure no one here is advocating anything illegal, so that's not really relevant to the discussion.

Or...”Father, I work 40 hours a week at a minimum wage job and still can’t afford to take care of my family.  Do you recommend that I 1) accept govt assistance until my children are all grown and gone  2) get a second job to make ends meet? 3) improve my skill set so that I can earn a higher income and better provide for my family?”

More accurately...

Father, my wife and I can not afford to provide for our family.  Do you recommend we continue to have more children and depend on other people to help support them,  or should we abstain from the marital act until we can properly provide for the children that God has already blessed us with?”

When I say “provide” I don’t mean new Nike sneakers, Polo jeans, cell phone, and exotic family vacations.   I mean the basic necessities of life...food, cloathes, clean home, education.

This is the place libertarianism has gotten us to. To suggest that it is a sin to engage in the marital debt when on is poor and on government assistance. The state has a duty to the people as well.

Never said it was a sin for poor folks to engage in the marital act.  What is a sin is to bring children into the world with no means to care for them.
My family had no money, my five siblings and I never had new shoes, got hand-me-downs from neighbors... but there was always food on the table, roof over our heads.  My dad always picked up extra hours where he could and mom was always clipping coupons and pinching pennies where she could but they never expected others to pay their bills for them.

Tax credit could disappear with the stroke of a pen.  It is an added bonus when available but should never be considered income to support your family.

Listen here, smarty pants... many of us have lived hard lives in order to make ends meet. Under such circuмstances, we tend to learn a bit about resourefulness. So, let's say that if one does lose this particular benefit with a "stroke of the pen," he's more likely to craft a way to continue to survive, even though it might result in extreme discomforts...

However, those which think they have had the tiger by the tail are in for a very gruesome surprise. They'll find out that doctorates and degrees will be rendered useless. Without practical tradeskills, (yes, those jobs filled by those loathsome blue-collar workers) they'll find themselves absolutely helpless when the "stroke of the pen," by their hidden masters render the value of their dollar to nothing, you'll be lacking the grit necessary to even support yourself, moreless your entire family.

I  speak with experience here... I went from riches to rags, almost literally overnight, I had a successful construction business and I went out of business in the crash of 2007-08. I witnessed many families thrown into the streets, with all their degrees and such, but I was able to get by without any schooling of higher learning, just with practical everyday skills and grit, and I didn't have to forfeit one bit of real property! That, my friend, is planning!

Learn who your masters are and quit playing this stupid foolish game that you think is just being responsible... you are about to be burnt! Learn, and teach your children, how to be a truely productive citizen to society and not just a big wage earner (wage slave.)
