I understand that sentiment. I think about the environment we are in where they want homosexual partners who get their hands on a baby to BOTH have three months off, which is anathema to me.

But, I support many aspects of policy in and out of the government that support a man and a woman trying to raise a child. I don’t have children, but...if my taxpayer dollars are spent to improve and assist the process of raising children, even though I don’t have any skin in that game...well, I feel that I should be supporting those efforts.

To me, though, three months for both mother and father seems like complete and total fiscal and corporate insanity.

But hey, what do I know?

I do understand your point, though. I understand this argument, especially with things like Health Care. In the end, I look at both of those things as corporate incentives, even though they have been somewhat mandated, which I fully understand the view that they should never have been.

And I do want to add-taxpayer money is more likely to be wasted than it is to be used wisely. I fully accept that.

An engineer at Meta publicly blasted his company after it reminded its employees that they are not to openly talk about Friday’s Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade, which paves the way for some states to ban abortion.


a firmer stance by a company?

Thats why more legal immigration might be a good idea. Too manh ignoramous and nincompoops. Bring it people who want to work instead of trying to get out of it
