The right to reproduce

This fine Tennessean has been exercising his right to reproduce:  Father of 30 children.  Because child support is figured solely through a mathematical formula in Tennessee, this man's minimum wage job is being split among his children and himself.  He now asks for help from the state because of the overly burdensome orders of child support.  Good luck with that one, Desmond Hatchett.  I'll go so far as to support your right to reproduce as you please, but I'll attach a moral obligation to society and your children to provide for them.  You've got a ways to improve on that obligation in my eyes, but you've got time.  Chin up, zipper up, and keep working.
