This woman did not set out to have eight more children people think this was her plan.

Inverto fertilization does not result in eight children usually four embroys result in a child the most the doctor hoped for was two in her case they all took and one egg split giving her eight instead of seven.

Her father mentioned that wasting tax dollars was just as much a waste as the TARP money that when the banks received the money they helped themselves more than the borowwers and they are the ones who needed help.

Wall Street Investers and those kind of bankers are what I would call greedy blood suckers and they sucked up tax money.

Now the fact that this woman will need help is not as much money as was thrown on Wall Stret bankers.

Another thing that people are not looking at is this woman can in the future take care of herself.  She does have an education and did work before having babies.

I think people in Calif. do not like children, in the early 20th century large families were common.

And sharing a room with a brother or sister was common, so common in fact that bunk beds were the way to make a bedroom more accomdating for four children.
