I was listening to marketplace weekend, on NPR, while doing my work this morning and they proposed this idea.
Basically they were saying that daycare for a kid is something like $15,000.00 a year. It is more than the hubby (in the example) tuition to the college he works at for the year. They obviously think it's ridiculous.
They had a second child, and made the decision it is cheaper for one of them to stay home, and make it one the one income. They obviously think this is unfair. Child care is higher or moving faster than inflation, and they made a comment about.... 'while they know it would mean higher taxes. They think that the government should provide it".
My thoughts... um...
