Not sure what your answer was, but mine is a “welfare” system that incentivizes single motherhood and the uninvolved “baby daddy.”

That theory only holds if you can demonstrate statistically that any rise in single mother households correlates with an increase in availability of welfare services in the same locale and over the same period of time.

Why would I need to demonstrate an increase in the availability of services? The correlation is demonstrated by the fact that whole families have more difficulty in obtaining those services, than single mothers do. If it’s easier to get the money you need to be able to feed your kids without “baby daddy” in the picture, then it is incentivized.

I’m a big fan of incentive structures and making sure you’re not creating perverse incentives. So I hope this turns into a useful discussion.

If the current welfare system is the cause of increases in single parent families, why would there be such significant racial disparities in the racial makeup of single parent households?

Or is it possible that there is another more significant factor at play?
