WELCOME DryLandSailor to the FReeper Foxhole! I've put out a Welcome Mat for you! (We don't want dirt tracked into our Foxhole. *snicker*) I'm looking forward to meeting you and reading your posts. Dive on in and tell us a little about yourself.

OLA, would you like to explain your relationship to our new FReeper FRiend? :-)

As in all things conservative, while I have no problem with companies giving extra benefits to support families (such as maternity, paternity leave, or in-house child care), I don't believe the government should be passing laws in this area. While I agree that families are important, families were around before government. What governments need to do is not provide incentives for families, but simply not penalize people for being in a family. And, of course, government should not pass legislation which hurts the concept of family or undermines the value of family, such as allowing same-sex marriages, etc. However, none of this contradicts what I stated in my post. Family is important, but that does not mean that government should take away from me to support your family.
