I don't think you'll find anyone who will argue that people on welfare -while on welfare- aren't gaining from society. What I'm saying is that the cost-benefit ratio for having kids as a means of increasing your welfare check is less than one.
And kids are expensive, even if you were to make all of their clothes, feed them only oatmeal, avoid the doctor visits and leave them home alone while you and your spouse work. If you factor in the considerable time commitment required to raise them right the little bastards aren't cheap.
