Oh come now.
Could you clarify that? Are your referring to a couple not wanting kids or a large family, or are you referring to someone being against OTHERS having a large family?

A) We don't want a large family, or ANY family outside of the fury, feathered, finny, variety.
B) We DON'T want others to have large families who cannot (or will never be able to) afford it. Those who DO and cannot afford it are taking from others who can (via way of taxes). Another way of saying THAT is, thievery.

It is important to remember that until the last few hundred years virtually everyone grew up with a tract of land that they grew and/or raised their own food on. Their kids would help in the farming. Essentially, the more kids you could 'breed', the more farm hands you had. Anything they didn't have would be bartered for with stuff they did have. Also, before antibiotics and modern plumbing you could literally count on a majority of your large family dying off before they had kids of their own.

Now we don't have the farmers society and people pay for their families with money. The more kids you have the more money you need..... Most can't simply grow more food to feed more mouths. And what happens when you don't have enough 'money'? Gov steps in, along with all the numerous well wishers who wish to donate to the large downtrodden families. Never mind that the "large" downtrodden families are "large" because of choice.....
