@shortstories - Depends on what one considers a "solution".
But nature always runs its course. When the welfare goes away, things will sort themselves out. Many useless and/or incapable people will perish. They will eat each other. And then they will starve.
In ancient times, many an army was devoured by deserts they attempted to cross. It didn't matter to the desert, how big an army was - they all perished.
When welfare goes away, useless people will find themselves in such a desert. 🥃
@shortstories - I'm good with a legal change allowing betrothal at 15, and marriage at 16.
12 is a bit too young, in my professional opinion. But, different strokes for different folks.
I foresee balkanization in the future, and a lot of sovereign villages and hamlets. If one of those places should wish to have 12yo betrothals, it will be no concern of mine.
I think it would have bad results in terms of infant mortality, and girls dying in labor. That's mostly why I can't support it.
Some Jewish texts support a great evil of marrying people too young. It should be illegal to marry someone who is three years old.
Rabbi Naftali Silberberg said,
"Although we do not follow this dictum, technically speaking, a girl may be betrothed the moment she is born, and married at the age of three"
@YoMomz
I oppose people breeding with someone who is to young to be able to consent. It should be illegal to marry three year olds
If you can not prevent the welfare people from breeding at whatever age then you have to enable the people not on welfare to legally be able to breed at the same age as the people on welfare or younger by changing the law
Age of marriage has to be lowered to about 12 or ELSE welfare people have to have forced abortions or adoption ONLY by someone not on welfare
