From a pure biological standpoint: No, absolutely. From an intelligent being’s standpoint: Yes.
Sure, the gov fails the average Joe left and right. Nothing new here, but the last thing I could think of to do anything against this, would be to add another slave-worker dreading its life to this world. Especially not mainly so it could care for my old ass when I can’t do so anymore. It’s just the epitome of egocentrism. To me at least.
Sure i can speak easy because I don’t have to worry about being cared for, but if I could not, I’d prefer a bullet to the head at the right point in time over burdening my offspring with my care. And they doing the same later, and so on and so on.
And I’m being called crazy :-) This is one of the worst and most sad reason for having kids.
So? cheap labor?!
Sad sure, but is it really crazy though? They’re getting taken care of by someone because their government has failed them.

Will you do that when you’re old, or will you just burden someone else’s slave-worker kids?
Qualify of life could improve significantly within a lifetime. We’re squandering resources on 1% of people.
