What is your stand about reproductive health bill?

Answer 1

No. Because contrary to what the RH bill proponents are telling everyone and what most people believe in is that the RH Bill will NOT give us the way to solve this socioeconomic crisis that we are faced with.

•According to Reese (Nov, 2008): Poverty is more than a lack of income. It is also the consequence of specific behaviors and decisions.

•The real long term solution to poverty is not achieved by mere luck and circumstance. It is achieved by a string of decisions.

•Set backs in life happen, but there is no special formula that magically brings prosperity and wealth.

•It is the core belief that we, the people, have the power to overcome wrongs, injustices, and disasters.

•It is the fundamental knowledge that we ultimately have power over ourselves, our lives, and our pursuit of happiness.

The real answer to poverty is a two step process :

1st step in helping people rise from despair: instill self worth. There is no self worth or self dignity found in a dole-out (such as the proposed cash transfer).

2nd, simply teach the odds to people each year, from 3rd grade through high school graduation, as to who are are the poor according to the 2001 U.S. Census data:

•High school drop-outs

•Staying single

•Having children without a spouse

•Working only part time or not working at all

•Therefore, how Not to Be Poor, according to the National Center for Policy Analysis, Jan, 2003 would be:

•Stay in School

•Get a Job

•Get Married

•Don't Have Children Out of Wedlock
