Man with 30 kids wants state help to pay his child support http://now.msn.com/money/0518-man-30-kids-child-support.aspx A 33-year-old man who has fathered 30 kids is asking the state of Tennessee to give him a hand with his child support payments. Desmond Hatchett is having a tough time making ends meet while working a minimum wage job and seeing half of his paycheck get split up between his 11 baby mamas. Incidentally, his score and 10 kids is a record for Knox County, and some of his kids receive as little as $1.49 a month once the money is divvied up. Hatchett last appeared in court in May 2009, when he had a paltry 21 kids to his name and said he had no intention of having more. Somehow, he found a way to add nine more to his legacy, so we're guessing he probably isn't done at 30. That is so crazy.. 30 kids.. at 33 years old.. that is really close to a baby for each year he's been alive. Instead of candles for next years birthday cake they could use his children... Calm down, that is not a racist comment! :tongue: What do you think he would wish for?
He gots hisself 11 baby-mamas! Lordy! I read about this Mexican general a while back, the article said he had 36 kids-hopefully not with the same woman.....
That is so crazy.. 30 kids.. at 33 years old.. that is really close to a baby for each year he's been alive Yea, exactly-I mean, did he have two women pregnant at the same time, or sets of quintuplets? Damn....there must be some fertility substance in dem collard greens... Good luck with getting the state to pay his child support! That's incredible.... Actually, if you do the math, he's had 9 kids in the past 3 years! Wtf?!?!?! :biker:
lol i had a grandfather that reminds me of that he had a newborn when he was 70 and still going strong lol
Yeah as if they weren't already getting public assistance . This is one of the very reasons and what the 1% sees when looking at the 99% . They think we are ALL just like this dirt bag . And why is only 1/2 his check going to his kids ? We have become a nation that takes no personal responsibility for our actions . I'm sorry this shit just pisses me off . And it shouldn't ,cause that's what the media propaganda machine intended for it to do . Divide ,divide,divide . People have become such pieces of shit . There is no hope . How have we as a nation , become this fucking stupid and irresponsible ? It's insane , no it's really criminal . Because it's the children and the state who suffers , cleaning up after these assholes mess after mess .
This is what happens when you eliminate survival of the fittest from the equation. This guy is just following his biological programming by maximizing his chances of having offspring, but the modern world doesn't punish such indiscriminate spawning, rather, it enables it. If it were 100 years ago the problem would take care of itself as he would be unable to feed all of these kids. There are times when you might say forced castration could be justified, unfortunately, that's a precedent we really don't want to set. By the way guys, he's not that much more to blame than the women who keep having kids with him. Ah, it's like seeing the movie Idiocracy play out in real life!
seriously, you folks are right on. it is idiocracy. it is absurd. i hate to say it, but the most stupid people breed the most. the more intelligent people breed less, if at all. 30 fucking kids?!?! surely this type of utter irresponsibility and stupidity is a significant contributing factor to the plight of our society today. i am still wishing for some thought contagion and mental revolution, but shit like this weakens my hope a bit.
Nonsense, you cannot consistently rely on fortune like you can consistently rely on physical or mental prowess. You could say there is an element of luck involved, but we are talking about a geological timescale here. Even if a specimen was exceptionally lucky, if it was physically or mentally inferior to the average specimen, it would still likely be weeded out before it could produce offspring. On the off chance it wasn't, its offspring wouldn't have the genetic makeup required to survive or attract a mate.
i don't know ... look at modern society. those peeps who are less aware, tuned in, intelligent, etc. not just survive and attract mates but reproduce excessively. i hate to say it because it is a little bit off color, but in today's amerika peeps with less education, income, and worldliness frequently make the most babies. they oftentimes can't afford them, they can't educate them, but they make them. and then those spawn reproduce. and on. this isn't genetics or some variation on survival of the fittest, but is stupidity and excessive breeding without awareness for the many consequences (monetary, emotional, environmental/impact...), made possible by the fact that we live in cities and towns and have built up our world so much that there isn't the real opportunity for darwinism or whatevs to play out as it likely did in a much more natural, primitive and/or lesser developed world.
In this case, you're calling him stupid because he bred so much. How do we know he's stupid? I assume he works a not too-demanding job at minimum wage and is getting child support for his kids. Plus he'll have a lot of children/grandchildren to look after him when he's old. That doesn't sound so stupid to me.
Then you're just as "stupid" as he is . He asking the STATE of TENN. to pay for HIS 30 kids . Thanks to his irresponsibility and low paying job , which gives some of his kids a 1.49 per month . You can't feed a fucking goldfish for 1.49 a month . So that means that people like you and I who pay taxes have to once again pick up the slack for his and all the mothers poor life choices . That is if YOU pay taxes , which I doubt . It's rampant and out of control . And makes it really fucked up for good people who worked all their lives and are getting FUCKED by "people" just like this ! W.t.f. is wrong with you ? And I can fucking bet you , most of these kids mothers are ALREADY getting public assistance . But you see nothing wrong with his choices ? This is the kind of shit that's wrong in America . It's not enough he's an idiot , people like YOU support it . Funny though I bet YOU would think diff. , if YOU had to pay for them . Are you just obstinate , or fucking trolling ?
No, but I suspect that you may be. I'll be clear from the start - I'm not endorsing his way of life, I was merely offering an analysis. No need to lash out at me. Don't mistake analysis for endorsement. Why should your resentment at paying for his kids account for his stupidity? Terms like "irresponsibility" only betray your anger at his taking advantage of the welfare arrangements offered to him at your own disadvantage. That's not stupidity - in fact it's rather smart if he's able to overcome his own moral feelings, which most of us aren't (including you!). Be honest with yourself. You're annoyed at having to do something you don't want to (work) to pay for this guy, so therefore you're going to call him 'stupid', because it's the only way to cause him pain and possibly change his behavior to benefit you.
oh man that made me laugh :rofl: maybe the taxpayers should "overcome their moral feelings" and castrate this deadbeat
Unlikely. Your president and western culture is always talking about 'growth' - this guy is supplying it. If the taxpayer believes growth benefits him, more kids is great!
