[quote=Anonymous]In addition PP, kindly I think you're living in an alternate reality. Most Americans do not have kids. Only 40% of households in the U.S. has a child or children under the age of 18 living with them. Only 5% of American households had children under 6 - which was the broad target of most of the BBB legislation - living with them. [i] These "if you have kids you can stay home with them" trolls are in a tiny minority -- most Americans have kids, and most know childcare is not affordable, and most believe we as a society should subsidize it becasue otherwise people can't work. [/i] All of this information is freely available on the U.S. census. https://www.census.gov/data/tables/2021/demo/families/cps-2021.html If you'd like to put that in perspective for a Virginia resident, nearly 70% of eligible voters DO NOT HAVE CHILDREN under 18.
