A Cure for the Economy

There is a simple cure for our world's economic problems.  It's simple, but it won't be easy.  It will take courage and sacrifice, hard work, and lots of changes.  It will mean taking a gigantic leap of faith.  However, it is a cure that has already proven to work time and time again. What, you might ask, is this simple but overlooked cure that can save the world and solve the economic crisis?

Babies. Babies are the cure for what ails the world. Throw out the contraception, cancel the abortions, and have more babies.  I can hear it already. "Won't that just cause more problems? How can people who are already broke and out of work afford to have another baby?"  I'm glad you asked. Please allow me to explain.

You see, when a woman believes she might be pregnant, she heads to the store.  She makes a purchase of a home pregnancy test.  If she is pregnant, her next expenditure is a doctor's fee.  She begins spending money on that new life right away.  She buys some prenatal vitamins, and possibly some iron pills.  She isn't the only one who will be spending money, either. The father, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends of the family, and co-workers will all be spending money on this new baby.  The purchases they make will help pay the wages of workers, support businesses both local and national, and with all of the buying going on, I guarantee the economy will begin to right itself.

Furthermore, the money that gets spent on that child doesn't end when it is born. Pregnancy is just the beginning of the boost to the economy.  A child is a gift that keeps on giving when it comes to the goods and services that will be consumed over its lifetime.  And the more children that are born, the more families that open themselves to life, the healthier the economy will become.  So, if you really want the economy to grow and stop dying off, I highly recommend babies.  They really do bring new life to the world.
