Are cash incentives the answer to America's baby bust?
00:03
Trump thinks so, but critics don't think it's enough.
00:07
ABC News reports that the White House is reviewing proposal from outside groups
00:10
urging the government to encourage marriage and childbearing
00:13
as a part of a broader effort to boost the nation's falling birth rate.
00:17
The Trump administration's consideration of a $5,000 baby bonus
00:20
was initially reported by the New York Times on Monday.
00:23
And on Tuesday, the New York Post asked the president
00:26
if the White House was considering handing out up to $5,000 per delivery
00:29
to which President Trump stated,
00:31
sounds like a good idea to me.
00:33
But not everyone thinks it's a great idea.
00:35
Art Kaplan, a medical ethics professor at NYU,
00:39
told News Nation's Cuomo he opposes paying women to have babies
00:43
and argued that if the goal is truly to support children,
00:46
the U.S. should focus on immigrant families and those seeking citizenship.
00:50
While conservative strategist Reena Shaw, who also spoke with Cuomo,
00:54
stated the move shows the Trump team is trying to confront economic realities
00:57
but added a one-time $5,000 check likely isn't enough
01:01
to offset the sky-high cost of parenting.
01:03
Online, opinions are split.
01:06
One commenter wrote,
01:07
the people excited about the $5,000 baby bonus
01:10
are not the people who should be having children.
01:12
And elaborated with,
01:14
they don't realize the true cost of having and raising a child.
01:17
$5,000 will disappear very quickly.
01:20
While others feel there should be restrictions,
01:22
such as a bonus only going to those who have been married
01:25
for more than five years and are not currently on any assistance.
01:29
Other ideas to help the declining U.S. birth rate
01:31
include giving preference to married or parenting applicants
01:34
for the Fulbright Scholarships
01:36
and launching fertility education programs
01:38
so women can properly track their menstrual cycles.
01:41
But what's your take?
