Latest edition of my local Communist business paper contains article about two-income couples living in McMansions with two pricey SUV’s in the driveway whining about “the high cost of child care” and that being the reason they only have 1 or 2 children.

Humans will no doubt be the first species to outsmart itself out of existence.

It's legitimate to whine about the "high cost of child care". It's pricey. Heck, just the cost of having a job isn't cheap. The *largest* expense (and one never mentioned) is government - they take the biggest bite of a 2nd income with marginal tax rates.

So, Mrs WBill stays home with the kids. By doing that, she saves more than she could earn in a "needs-fulfilling, feminist-approved job in the everyday workforce".

She has more fun, too. She's headed to an amusement park with the kids, today.

No word from the feminists on that. They likely wouldn't approve.
