Britain doesn’t officially recognise polygamous marriages.
But it will happily pay for them.
This man has 3 wives and 11 children.
No job.
The wives live as one “family” socially and religiously, yet legally the additional wives are treated as single mothers for benefits purposes.
And the result is multiple housing claims, child benefit for every child, and universal credit top ups.
The more wives and kids, the bigger the payout.
Meanwhile the British taxpayer gets the bill.
This is a good example of welfare arbitrage.
The state refuses to recognise the marriage on paper, then subsidises the exact same arrangement with public money.
Incentives matter, and the system rewards having as many wives and children as possible, as long as you don’t work.
1 man. 3 wives. 11 kids. 0 contribution.
Guess who’s paying?

A Chinese restaurant in the Bay Area is fining parents for their out-of-control kids.
The owner of Chez Xue says he has had enough of poorly behaved children in his restaurant, so he is now fining parents.
You You Xue says one customer changed a dirty diaper next to another customer who was dining.
"We are not a playground. Please ensure children REMAIN SEATED at all times and respectful of fellow guests and the dining environment," the restaurant's policy says.
"Running around, shouting, making noise with utensils, etc. WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!"
One parent was charged $327 after their child smashed a credit card machine.
Another parent was charged $109 after their kid carved designs into a table with a utensil.
One more parent was charged $5 after a child smashed a teacup.
"I honestly put this notice on my menu because I didn't want to put my employees in the position of parenting other people's children. It should not be their job," the owner said.
This guy is awesome.

A federal judge in Milwaukee has decided that a sitting judge who smuggled a man out a side door to keep ICE agents from arresting him owes society exactly $5,000 and not one single day behind bars.
The message this sends to every corrupt judge in America is unmistakable. Obstruction has a price tag, and apparently it's cheap as long as you're defying the Trump administration.

📸: Norwegian-American robotics company 1X @1x.technologies has revealed new details about the five-finger robotic hands developed for its humanoid home robot Neo —
The hands use actuator systems designed to replicate the function of human tendons, allowing Neo to achieve 25 degrees of freedom of movement, compared with approximately 27 degrees found in a typical human hand.
According to 1X, the combination of cameras, artificial intelligence, and advanced control systems enables the robot to understand objects, adjust its grip, and detect when an item is slipping. The hands are reportedly capable of handling irregularly shaped objects, performing rapid movements, and reaching positions beyond the natural range of human fingers.
The robotic hands are also rated IP68 for water and dust resistance, allowing Neo to perform tasks such as washing its own hands.
