Nah - I'm neither and female. But I watched as just 1/4th of the social welfare policy pushed by liberals like me implemented such terrible inflation that everyone in this country is punished when really only 18% (the share of parents with school-aged kids) directly benefited.

We're still sinking under high prices for everything from food to gas to energy and its been what? 7 months since it was canceled. [/quote]

This.  Last thing we need is government intervention in the childcare market.  It will only make it more expensive.  Just like what happened to college tuition.  [/quote]

I remember in the BBB discussions this came up and economist said the price of childcare would be astronomical. There were parents who flat out said they didn't care because guess what? Their expenses would be limited to 7% no matter how high the fees rose. Meanwhile the government, meaning the taxpayer, would be paying the other 93% even if childcare centers decided $5,000/month was the acceptable per child rate. You already see it happening with in federally-subsidzed daycares in D.C.

I shudder to think of the national costs.[/quote]
