child tax credits are some mega "treat my loins as a serf factory, I'm a reliable supplier!" shit
That temporary child tax credit was a huge help for child poverty, though. It's basically just a non means tested cash assistance program for families with children.
I have a conservative family member who teaches is a poor district who became strongly in favor of continuing that credit after seeing the affect on kids in her class.
feed hungry children even if they are white
Having or adopting children is both a significant expense and a societal good, and we should subsidize it to prevent suffering of children from poverty.
Note: I am not saying people who don't want children should have them.
