I sometimes joke with my kids and call them Lamborghini 1 and 2, because that's how much money it was suggested you would need for each kid, and I'm sure that has doubled or tripled by now.
hospital bill will likely be 10x that
Considering also, how much they all complained about handing out checks during the pandemic...this just makes no sense. Now they're fine handing out even bigger checks, just to replace the people they're obsessed with deporting?
They are good with proposing a thing that sounds good to a portion of their voting base, not with following through.
I mean I like the direction, but this is far cry from other countries.
Give us UHC, improve working rights, guaranteed housing for parents, daycare.
But Its good they at least bringing it up.
This is such a classic fascist play, get your bingo cards out ladies
Heard they planning to do same shit in Russia. Honestly, I don't think this will work in any country.

This is a great summary of exactly why I won't have kids. I don't want to spend all my waking hours working so a billionaire can afford a private island.
The USA should copy the Swedish maternity leave.
USA should probably copy a lot of Swedish things, but we won't
The government giving people stuff they didn't earn? Sounds kind of progressive. Is that really the image pure fucking evil vile narcissistic scum really want?

Well, in a couple of years, some countries more than 50% of the population will be retired. Even a perfect democracy would not pass a law to improve young people’s lives so they can have time and money to have kids.
Just like in a perfect democracy, no affordable housing law will be approved because 66% of the population are homeowners.
Its unsolvable.

Add an extra zero to that. Then we might consider
Let them get braces.
Nobody can afford health care and they want us in the office no remote work making it even more difficult. It's almost like they want to run us all into the ground while they sit on gold toilets and enrich themselves beyond all measure of reason. Oh and they're building bunkers in New Zealand, the billionares pulling the strings so when they get us into a nuclear war you won't hear from them again.
We don't have a population shortage so I'm confused? The only reasoning I can see is to use as meat on some front lines somewhere he can use in his 7th term in office.
