[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reporters need to ask KJP about this crisis at the press briefing. Perhaps she will have an answer in her book. And, in case anyone thinks this is old footage.... July 20. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/baby-formula-shortage-fda/ [twitter]https://twitter.com/bennyjohnson/status/1551334634763431936[/twitter][/quote] Honestly asking - how is that possible? This has been going on for half a year. There have been dozens of shipments from Europe. Did US manufacturing plants completely shut down?[/quote] Someone needs to ask this administration and see how they spin it. [/quote] Breast feed your Baby- who needs formula Oh wait... the GOP is against paid maternity leave -guess all the women FORCED to give BIRTH will continue to have to go back to work at 6 weeks for their minimum wage jobs of $7/hr[/quote] I know women who WFH who refuse to breastfeed. Y[b]ou need formula -it’s literally essential for life.[/b] Basic necessity pp.[/quote] Actually, babies don't "need " artificial cow's milk based formula made in China or contaminated US factories as something " essential to their lives" Human infants NEED Human milk, made naturally in the mother's body which not only provides ALL nutritional requirements, human breast milk is the ONLY source of transfer of the mother's immune globulins to her newborn to protect babies from various infectious illnesses. Breast Milk is FREE and sanitary So ironic that Republicans want to compel women to give birth, but refuse to support those very same women in breast feeding their babies -fully paid 1 year maternity leave Instead, GOP wants to force more poor women to have babies and - at same time- start a trade war with CHINA- the main source of imported of cow's milk artificial baby formula, fail to inspect US based cow's milk artificial formula factories and allow trade monopolies to weaken the supply chain [/quote] No one needs, or should be given, a free ride year for a year so they can nurse. You already get FREE time from employers to pump and employers are forced to provide luxury nursing rooms for you. Oops, I forgot to mention other employees taking up your slack while you have your free pumping breaks. Society is not responsible for your choice to procreate and don't give me your song and dance about your offspring paying for my social security.[/quote] You should probably stop talking. Maternity / Paternity leave is not a "free ride." What kind of a--hole even says that? People (and children with issues that require it) are healing, many dealing with mental health issues (PPD), stress, etc. Having to balance those things with work after a few weeks is extremely stressful and difficult (and my birth experience was easy and I still struggled). It is beneficial to families and societies -to have healthy well adjusted kids, parents, and workers- not to mention the morally indicate position to allow to a) allow it to happen, and b) recognize it's importance. Your post is a callous, selfish, ignorant one. And one mostly relegated to a different era, though not yet fully, as posts like yours demonstrate. The sort of society you describe, that runs families into the ground, is not one that holds any virtue and is one that most other developed countries like ours shun. They mock us and they should. It's embarrassing. People like you are embarassing.[/quote] Put it to a vote nationwide and you will find out how wrong you are. [/quote] And people wonder why there is an opioid epidemic in America... [/quote] What does the opioid epidemic have to do with maternity leave?[/quote]
