Answer:
Swift criticizes the poor/lower class since they have children that can not be taken care of, and they have to beg for food or the minimum things to be alive. The problem with these kids is that they become thieves or not useful for the nation. We can see this in the next lines: <em>"It is a melancholy object to those who walk through this great town or travel in the country, when they see the streets, the roads, and cabin doors, crowded with beggars of the female sex, followed by three, four, or six children, all in rags and importuning every passenger for an alms. These mothers, instead of being able to work for their honest livelihood, are forced to employ all their time in strolling to beg sustenance for their helpless infants: who as they grow up either turn thieves for want of work, or leave their dear native country to fight for the Pretender in Spain, or sell themselves to the Barbados."</em>
The next group that he criticizes is the Catholics since they are superior in number and want to give the Irish kingdom to James III, king of England. We can see it when the author says: <em>"it would greatly lessen the number of papists, with whom we are yearly overrun, being the principal breeders of the nation as well as our most dangerous enemies; and who stay at home on purpose with a design to deliver the kingdom to the Pretender, hoping to take their advantage by the absence of so many good protestants, who have chosen rather to leave their country than stay at home and pay tithes against their conscience to an episcopal curate."</em>
Explanation:

In his proposal, he criticizes the lower class since its children are an inconvenience for the country and the Catholics since they are their main enemies. He mentions both o them in different sections of his proposal.
