6 + 8 = More Than We Should Pay For!!

OK, here is another example when someones "right" to do something needs to be tempered with common sense.

Last week we all cheered the successful delivery of the octuplets in California. A miracle, indeed, that all of them had survived and were doing so well. Then...as the media did what they do...we find out that the mother already had six children at home...no small family to be adding to at all, let alone have eight more added to the fray. Now today, the news mentioned that she is a SINGLE mother!!! Gee...I wonder who will get to pay this doctor bill...to the tune of, I have heard, about $4 million. Now, it was also mentioned that the father is the same for all the children, obviously an important fact considering the mother is SINGLE!!!! Hello America! What the &%@$ is going on here? Why do we let people do this kind of crap? Didn't a doctor say, "Excuse me ma'am, but you already have six children at home that you are caring for on your own, I don't think you should have more". NO, the $$$ showed and he said let's go! This whole thing stinks and by the sounds of it, many different things were done wrong in this process.
