The Russian government announced this week it is bringing back a Soviet-era honorary title and financial reward bestowed upon Russian women who have 10 or more children.

In a decree this week that Russian President Vladimir Putin signed, it was announced that the title of “Mother Heroine” will again be awarded to Russian women who “birth and raise” 10 Russian citizens.

The title will come with a reward of 1 million Russian Rubles, equating to roughly $16,645 in U.S. dollars, once the tenth child turns one year of age. Recipients will also earn a five-pointed golden star medal, the decree states.

The “Mother Heroine” title comes with certain caveats, such as requiring all children to be alive on the tenth child’s first birthday unless they were killed serving in the military, civic service or a terrorist attack.

Really, 10! Doubt many will make it! Who is going to support all of them as the mother is going to be doing nothing but having sex and changing diapers. Sounds like a Russian puppy mill. What good is it going to do as it will be 10 to 20 years before they can do much except eat and crap. Close to Hitler’s breeding program. Can you say: Forever Pregnant! $16,000.00 per kid is nothing! I doubt the world will be around in ten years. Good Luck Comrade!

I keep thinking about the rationale behind creation of more dependents in a communist nation. More labor? Or more dependents? More poverty would fund the dictator and oligarchs. More prosperity depletes…well Americans get it. Too many with so-called educations don’t and they’re the ignorami who listen to the current administration.
