All I know is that it's not the responsibility of the federal government to fund childcare!

Do you think we were too stupid to think of that?
Feckless, yep, likely so.
Necessity is the mother of invention. You don't appear inventive at all. That intimates a degree of necessity (or lack thereof)
If you were teleported back to 1930, in the midst of the Great Depression, with real necessity, you would find a way. If you were teleported back to the WWII era, while you were fighting overseas, your family would find a way.
It is a blind assumption, but a reasonable one, to presume you personally enjoy better financial and structural resources than 99% of humans on the planet. If you need a helping hand, check out the ends of your arms, you'll find a hand or two there.

Liar. Even Charlie Gasparino who has the same TDS level as Neil Cavuto said he killed it and the guests loved it.

Thanks for assuming some more, but I did find a way. Don't worry. Doesn't mean I don't think I should advocate to make it easier for the people who are trying to do it now. Because this is America where we act like we are exceptional, except when it comes to trying to help the people who are struggling the most.

"Everyone who can do that" might run in the 80%+ realm. "Everyone who is willing do that" might run in the 20% range. The other 80% whine that it's too inconvenient.

The hypo you reference had YOU overseas at war. So, no, in that instance it would not be you 'finding a way.' It would be your family (the same family you intimate cannot/will not help you) finding a way in your absence. That was kind of the point.

It's laughable just how out of touch this guy is with reality
It's what we did. My mom was struggling to make ends meet with her limited social security. My wife and I didn't want to pay for daycare. "Hey mom, move in with us and spend some extra time with your grand kids and save your SS money." 2 problems solved.
How is JD's suggestion laughable? I guess that it is not really a government policy, but why is this a government issue? Do we need the government to solve all our problems?
He should have said we are going to help the overall economy which will give parents more options to figure this out for themselves.

Okay boomer

When you aren’t aligned with the subject. You would think there would be enough collective intelligence in this country to decipher this.
Guess what, if youve already asked your in-laws or parents, or you don’t have any anymore, or you do not live close enough where that is feasible, your brain should say “oh, well that’s not possible for me, he’s clearly not directing this at me because it doesn’t apply.”

What in the frick is wrong with you people? Seriously?
Name one god damn thing the government funds or is funded for that isnt a complete waste of resources and tax payer money.
The private sector will always be infinitely more efficient.
The answer is never “let’s give the government more money.”
It ends up on a fricking parade route for the Taliban. It ends up in illegals pockets. It ends up incentivizing more welfare queens to have more kids.

Oh well if you doubt it, then it must be true. Thank you for all of the facts that you used to back up your claim.

Everybody understands that child care requires funding and/or work.
We just disagree on who's responsible for providing that funding and/or work.

Leave it to a Progressive to think the only solutions come from government.
Yet its been shown you you repeatedly that government is the reason day care costs are so high.

Well that’s the out of the box thinking that the left is known for. Way to go.
So more programs…. More money printing… more bureaucrats… more fraud.. more waste…more kickbacks… more abuse… more government dependence… more “free free free free”.
To go with all of the other programs that has made this “great society” churn right along.
I mean… the consequences of printing more cash is upon us at this moment and there is a clamor for more. Unbelievable.

Vance is a Don jr production

What is so laughable about this? Part of the decision-making process when fostering kids was whether or not we had a good supporting cast. My wife's parents and other relatives that moved to the area after us all help us when we need someone to watch after the three kids that we took in. We also utilize the foster support groups when a family member isn't available. It isn't the government's job to watch after our kids.
