It is amazing how blatantly people will just admit "I agree with politics that benefit me even if they exclude others."
> Taxes are more punishing because you're spending half your disposable income on children
I probably spend on my dogs what you do on your children. Gosh life sure is hard because of my decisions. Where are my discounts and tax refunds?

Do you see any governments enacting policies to make people have more dogs? > when is discrimination ok? When it makes things more moral/fair. Do you object to student discounts? Progressive taxes? You seem to be having a knee-jerk reaction to the word "discrimination". It's also called "price differentiation". Maybe that sounds less bad to you?
