SELL your Children

It would also be bad for the child's well-being knowing the only reason it is alive is because the government bought it to make some easy cash.

The government wouldn't buy the children. Private agencies would. If the government does so much as touch anything that has to do with my economy I freak out and try to heal the violated area. If the government had any say in this whatsoever, I say it's a bad idea. That's the truth, that's what I stand by.

The price is already at a prohibitive enough level that say a 20 % increase won't effect anything... no one else seems to understand I"m just saying adoption agencies would have to pay instead of being given a commodity for free vs having to pay for it... its also to show that anything can be argued well by the right person... but leading into the point on value of a human life goes into this topic

ACTUARIES ARE THE DEVIL ok the job of an actuary is to put a price on human life, so it must exist... case in point in the news : Firestone tires... Firestone knew their tires were defective and dangerous so what they did was to hire an actuarial firm... what that firm does is estimate the number of fatalities that will be caused by the tire, multiply that by the acerage settlement of each civil suit based on that death, and then compare that number to the amount it would cost to recall the tires.... since it was cheaper to just pay the settlements for the projected number of deaths, they didn't recall the tires... people died, Firestone paid them the settlement fees.... CHEW ON THAT

You're an econ major. Of all people, you should know that everything has a price. Even human life. You can buy anythings with the right amount.
