Teen pregnancy costs the gov 10 billion a year? Gee, these numbers are insane! It saddens me these young girls dont know much better, but I dont understand how the state punishes hard working tax payers, buy stealing their income through taxes and then offering a safety net for people who didnt consider being safe in the 1st place. Sorry, if I sound insensitive, but to me, almost sounds like all the welfare is working more like a reward for these teens, since lots of them get pregnant again right after.
Anyways, I wish them all luck and good health.

Actually it is mainly a way to filter government funds from one government pocket to another. A lot of that 10 billion a year goes into the paychecks of government workers and medical. The youth see very little of it other than a meager check and food stamps that is never enough to support one person, much less two.
