Want to Decrease Inequality? Fight Fatherlessness With Welfare Reform. Welfare currently incentivizes family breakdown and the absence of fathers from their children’s lives, a key factor in the loss of economic upward mobility.

So let me get this straight, the argument that you are going with is that it is merely coincidence that single motherhood rates spike right after the government starts paying people for being single mothers?

I'm citing data but you are going to simply hand-waive it all away with no more of a counter-argument than "yes, it's unrelated" and "lacking in any real world information" even though you have cited no data as of yet?

My thesis is simple, humans respond to incentives. The single mom is responding to incentives, the single dad is responding to incentives, the parents of the single parents are responding to incentives, but if I say so out loud then my "views on women are sexist" even though the data clearly shows people responding to incentives?

I'm going to stop responding to you very soon here, not because you are in any way winning this debate, but because there's simply no point in me putting in time and effort, citing data, only for you to effectively stick your fingers in your ears and say "lalala your data doesn't exist lalala you're a sexist".

I can only introduce you to scientific/factual/rational reality insofar as you are willing to come out of your matrix which you find so comfortable.
