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?”

Agreed. The democrat party is the evil party but it is also the dumb party.

Yeah sure, have government pay everything for your child—selling your parental rights and the rights of your children to the government. Good move.

Hey Maizie, maybe Mommies don’t want to go to work.

In spite of the fact that pushing Moms away from their children remains a Lefty dream, women are realizing that motherhood is wonderful and rewarding.

I had to work as a Mom, but I worked at night to be at home during the day.

Being a mother was the BEST job I ever had.

Why have roads and such if people can’t afford to drive on them?

This stupid heifer comes from Hawaii, where the average low temperature is 66 degrees in January and February.

She's neither stupid nor brilliant.

She's an obedient Dem who constructs these preposterous statements knowing that wild-eyed Dem cult will not question them.

That’s the most recent talking point.

What about folks without kids? They get to pay for others child care, AND eat the gas tax.

No thanks.

Senator Hirono does not impress me as being very intelligent. To make a statement like that, she is not thinking. Everybody cares about the price of gas, which incidentally is twice today what it was when Biden was inaugurated.

When the economy was booming, Pre Covid, where did Mommy and Daddy have their children at then?

Moms were working before without Federal Child Care money.
