This is a crucial element ignored by the above study by design. There is a cash incentive for those on public assistance to have more children. There is also a cash incentive for the fathers of these children to deny paternity. It is not so much that poorer men father fewer children, as that they fail to claim paternity.
The study is flawed. Men don't have chidren, women do. In the lower socioeconomic groups, there are larger numbers of single mothers and each has more offspring. I do not have the statistics in front of me, but this is true, and clear to you if you consider it even briefly.
What the study does look at and is obviously true is that women are drawn to better providers. This is a well known fact.
Randy, you should never, ever, criticize anyone for putting something here that should be in the dungeon. If you understood the above abstract, you would not have put it here.
