I generally agree with your sentiment but I think you're going a little too far when you say poor people shouldn't have kids. Yes, a disturbing amount of the time it just results in them leaching off society but most of them turn out fine. Nobody is ever "financially prepared" to have kids anyway. They suck up all your money if you let them.

I was financially prepared to have kids. Letting one's kids "suck up all" one's money is my definition of not being prepared, medical emergencies aside.
