I'm buying health insurance for my family. The cheapest plan has a max out of pocket cost of $14,700 plus $5,400 of yearly premiums. It effectively costs $21,100 to have a child.

However, if you're on Medicaid, it's free (?). The way our laws work, people who don't make money are incentivized to have children. Whereas people who do, are incentivized not to. What's that going to do to our society over the long run? https://www.whijournal.com/article/S1049-3867(13)00055-8/fulltext …pic.twitter.com/VTt60oAvNa
