  1. Many of the world's problems can be directly attributed to a constantly increasing population. In order to maintain a zero growth value, couples need to produce 2.1 children or less. For Vance (who has 3 children) and his like-minded peers to have the large families that he advocates, he NEEDS some families to be childless.

    Hypocrisy is a defining characteristic of the GOP.

  2. so as childless adults who don't contribute do we get a refund on all the taxes we paid into? also I spent much of my own money equipping myself with proper gear when the army issued me garbage, do I get a tax write off for that?

  3. My fave is when people tell me to have a baby and be a single mother, all that matters is baby – and my mom will help raise it. Awesome idea 😅 That doesn't sound hard or stressful at all…

  4. Dont u all think this man has phycological issues much as his boss. Hitler wanted all German women married or single to have as many children as possible to promote the Aryan race I suppose down the road. they. the Replicans would figure out ways to stop the ones of theie choice from pro crating should they get into power forever as Trump said. Blue for me

  5. From a highly educated SAHM mom of 3 who gave up her law career for the privilege of staying home to parent those kids – THANK YOU for this well reasoned video rant. You expressed my own rage and disbelief quite well. To the Republicans making judgments about my life or any other's personal choices? GTFO.

  6. You know how when a parent is lecturing someone without kids, and know how they insist that they didn't understand the true nature of love or self-sacrifice until they became parents?

    You know how those parents seem like they're trying to make you feel like you're a drain on society, selfish beyond measuring incapable of love?

    Well, whenever I see those parents engaging online, or in real life, I get all these almost- intrusive thoughts about how people like JD Vance and Matt Walsh have a veritable litter of children, but seem to celebrate cruelty. They call people names. They love to assign mental illnesses to strangers.

    And the final intrusive thought is this: if parenthood transformed JD Vance and Matt Walsh before they had 10 children between the two of them, what the actual hell were they like? Because they sure don't seem to have any sense of love or self-sacrifice now that they are parents.

  7. I love how JD Vance doesn't even have the brain power to think through his own policy idea. If all custodial parents got additional votes for their kids, he'd be empowering a whole ton of single mothers. Maybe it would even motivate more women to become single mothers, so they could get more votes and then vote to get things like government-subsidized daycare and paid maternity leave passed in Congress. Soon enough, it would create a women's majority on everything. Want to have an unnecessary war? Too bad, warmongers are extremely unpopular with moms. Want to demolish a kids' playground so you can put in an oil pipeline? No good, you'll lose the "mom vote." How about those gun rights? Nope, moms voted for representatives who repealed them because they're sick and tired of worrying about school shootings. But they voted to keep birth control, abortion access and IVF, because all those things can also be used to protect a woman's reproductive health and fertility, and now that moms have extra votes, they're never going back to when they only had one! 😛

  8. I agree entirely with this commenter with regard to a person's personal rights to make their own choices. My strategy for looking at arguments has always been to try to see something from an opposite opinion such as if the government can force folks to bear additional children they don't want, then the government can remove said children even if folks want them. The government is us, my neighbors, and people far away, and you folks should have no business making my personal decisions for me.

  9. "Parents should have more power over the political future of this country"

    Parents do have more power over the political future of this country. They're raising the political future of this country! Parents are the biggest influence in a child's life. They don't also need more votes.

  10. This is one of the best responses I have heard! I don't have children but I will still fight for my nieces and nephews, my friend's children, random people I don't know, etc. Not to mention the fact that I currently live on this planet and would like to be around for a long time and these issues will affect my life in various ways. The only reason he said such stupid crap is because the people who are quickly losing support are the Republicans and the people who tend to have the most children are religious nutjobs who often vote Republican. Smh

  11. The best/worst part about this is that I could sort understand the point about "people with kids having more at stake and be given more importance"; if the republicans or the right in general gave any shit ever to education, childcare, gun control, climate change or ANYTHING that would actualy affect childrens.

    Also, you can bet this would only apply to white people, and if a non-white had children they would be accused of voting fraud or whatever.
