As I suspected, it turns out that the cute little octuplets born in the People’s Republic of Kalifornia will be largely supported by tax money.
A lot has already been said, and will continue to be said. I won’t beat it to death. I will say this: The federal government and the state should both sue the doctors who agreed to do the in vitro fertilization to recover the entire cost of the delivery, neonatal care and tax dollar support until those kids turn 21.
I call this the “Michael Jackson Syndrome”. Some people desperately need to have someone around them to say, “Look, this is a really bad idea. You’re obviously not thinking straight — you just can’t do this. It’s wrong, and it will also make you look like a nut case”. Jackson has never had this, which is why he’s in the state he is. Apparently neither has this woman. You’d think a bunch of doctors would have the common sense, not to mention the social and medical responsibility, to do it for her — but, hey, this is Kali we’re talking about.
