“The child care program subsidizes child care for low-income families, promoting long-term self-sufficiency by enabling parents to work or attend workforce training or education activities. It also educates parents about the availability of quality child care, which enhances children’s early learning.”

I figured it might have been something like that. As with most government run things, it appears it it rife with opportunities for abuse, and we are paying for it with money we don’t have.
Granted, for liberals, they think parents shouldn’t be raising their children, because in their minds, parents are bad for children, they should be raised by the state.
I just finished re-reading Orwell’s “1984”, and it is without a doubt one of the most frightening books I have ever read. But the thing here that made me think about it was O’Brien’s explanation to Winston about how the state fully intends to destroy the sexual drive, outlawing orgasm, making sex something unthinkiable, demolishing the husband-wife relationship, the parent-child relationship, and eventually, the bonds of simple friendship.
Encouraging these parents to send the kids to daycare where they can be raised by “professionals” seems to be right up that alley.
There had been a time in my life where I thought it was a far-fetched story about a future dystopia. Now it seems as if it is an instructional manual for the Left.
Scary. But I think I am preaching to the choir here.
