Hmm, let's compare the cost of an inanimate object with the long term costs
of nurturing a human being.... Nope, it doesn't work like that, nice try,
but totally an utterly off base.

So I guess adopted children are valued much less than business jets
and large homes.

Whoa! Non sequitor...?

Not at all. The cost of adopting a child is much lower than the cost
of a business jet or a large home. If things obtained for little or
no money or effort are likewise valued little, then adopted children
should be valued less than jets and homes, because they certainly cost
less.
