1	Do you Hate single mothers? Only stupid people would argue that IQ isn't largely hereditary. Ok bud. No need for jabs, just having a conversation here. Perhaps that's what studies suggested in the past, but the most recent research shows around 40-60% A quick google confirms it. ... Another particularly interesting recent finding is that the genetic influence on measured intelligence appears to increase over time, from about 20 percent in infancy to 40 percent in childhood to 60 percent in adulthood.

1	Do you Hate single mothers? Abortion is a hell of a lot cheaper than a child. If someone can't afford the $500 for an abortion pill, how can they possibly afford to raise a child? Yeah that's kind of my point. (most of) The USA makes it pretty hard to get an abortion in the first place. Which could mean a lot more unwated babies. ...and the cycle continues Yeah it sucks, I'd like to think that through decent education and welfare you can combat the cycle. Where I live (Australia) we do an alright job, but I still think the…	/r/PurplePillDebate	13/04/17 07:31 AM
3	Do you Hate single mothers? Forming your political opinion on think-tanks rather than peer-reviewed science seems like a pretty shitty idea. But ok	/r/PurplePillDebate	12/04/17 03:09 AM
2	Do you Hate single mothers? It's important to look at causation has been established in this report. Going over it the correlation is clear, but I don't see them accounting for income. Which is really important if you're trying to say "Lack of marriage leads to Povety". (which, OP was saying) Think-thanks always sounded like a huge place for bias to run wild. Perhaps I'm mistaken. I'm not saying their frauds or anything, but they may interrupt the data in ways its not really meant to be etc. and their history suggests that…	/r/PurplePillDebate	12/04/17 03:05 AM
3	Do you Hate single mothers? Thanks for the Link.. but I'm looking for a study/metanalysis that was published in a journal, so I can look at how they measured they're data and what they accounted for so I can check they measured what they said they did. Thinktanks on both the left and right tend to publish this kind of stuff to push their agenda. Also a quick google say these guys arn't really reliable when it comes to reporting the facts: http://www.accuracy.org/release/272-is-the-heritage-foundation-credible/ Edit: Linked…	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/04/17 02:39 PM
1	Do you Hate single mothers? Yeah but is this persons choice to have a child due to their lack of education? Would they be able to afford an abortion if they had money? (and it was legal in their state) and/or are they making shitty life choices because they're parents didn't raise them well enough? I'm not saying that having a child while poor doesn't make you poorer, ofcourse it does. But that doesn't mean it's the cause of poverty. It's more accurate to say it's an exacerbating symptom. I live in Australia.	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/04/17 02:13 PM
3	Do you Hate single mothers? Cheif cause.. not a symptom of poverty? Do you have anything that makes you hold this belief that isn't anecdotal personal experience? I just can't see this making sense. Do single mothers raise children worse then single fathers/Couples? Perhaps/Probably. That's something you can look into. But to say that they cause poverty... That's a huge statement. Clearly there's some narrative you believe here, I'm curious to hear it.	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/04/17 01:52 PM
2	Do you Hate single mothers? Say what you want about how functional a single parent is but... chief cause of poverty and dysfunction in the west This has to be hyperbole. You're not serious are you?	/r/PurplePillDebate	11/04/17 01:12 PM
