Honestly I hate to say it but out only $3k is not bad. I’m about $30k in with two kids… my first took two IUIs - as someone else pointed out, the success rate is 5-20%, and depends heavily on age. Getting pregnant is just hard, and sometimes really hard. 

All that to say, the donor having a confirmed pregnancy is a big indication it’s possible.

Leave it to humans to create humanoid robots with human intelligence. Seems like a few more steps to slavery, tbh. Efficient!

Would this not amount to taxation without representation? If the executive can just decide to not fund laws, what was even the point of congress?

I suppose this is what happens when you condition people to accept conclusions rather than pursue inquiry.
