[quote=Anonymous]It's amazing to see people continue to act like this isn't a problem no matter how bad it gets. And the burden just mostly falls on moms. Even the "if you can't afford childcare, don't have kids" people don't get that the problem isn't just affordability, it's scarcity. And scarcity is getting worse because daycare workers can barely live on their income, plus they get sick constantly and their jobs are hard. So no one wants to do it. You can hand waive this away if you want, but then you don't get to complain about how young people aren't choosing have kids or how the tax base is shrinking right when your Social Security is supposed to kick in. This is a ticking time bomb with real implications for all of society but go ahead and keep ignoring it or treating it as a personal responsibility problem. [/quote]
