Hirono: People Don’t Care about Gas Prices If They Can’t Afford Child Care So They Can Go to Work
Breitbart ^ | 11/13/2021 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 11/13/2021 8:25:56 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Saturday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Velshi,” Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) said she agrees with the notion that people don’t care about gas prices if they can’t afford child care so they can work.

Guest host Maria Teresa Kumar said, “One of the things that we saw was a historic infrastructure bill that passed that’s going to alleviate, not just our roads and clean water, but has implications for a brighter future when it comes to climate energy and so on and so forth. However, now, the second part of this plan, the human infrastructure, the one that will build back the population we need to actually drive on those roads and take advantage of those electric vehicles is up for discussion. Sen. Manchin right now seems again to say that he may not vote for this bill because of inflation and, senator, one of the things I often have conversations with is that people could care less about the price at the pump if they can’t pay for child care and get back to work. Can you speak to this?”

Dumbest broad in the Senate.

Oh by far. In fact you could modify that to Dumbest broad in... with anything and it would still be correct.

I don’t know, Patti Murray (RAT- WA) could give her a run for the money.

I am so tired of this.

If you can’t afford childcare, either stay home and live on one income or pool together with others in a similar situation.

The government and taxpayers should not be involved in paying for people’s families. If they are, they end up running them. Like our entire educational system, for example.

If (insert here) didn’t cost so much folks would have more money to provide for their own needs.

The very biggest (insert here) is government … government consumes resources and produces nothing.

Either she is too stupid to realize that inflation is regressive, or she just doesn’t care. Either way, her constituents should be worried. Though as long as she has a “D” next to her name on the ballot her job will be safe.

(They can cram any facts into their existing narrative)

I think you accidentally spelled “lies” incorrectly as “facts”

Riiiight. Let’s see ONE family speak to how they don’t care about gas prices.

Only people don’t care about gas prices are the ones like Lazy Kimono that make enough money they don’t have to care about it.

almost anybody wanting child care can get it

it is other services (those that require somebody to leave the comfort of their home and television to actually go to work in a store or factory) that are more difficult to find nowadays

since the government is — unbelievably — actually paying them to NOT work
