The Insulting ‘$5,000 Solution’ to the Childcare Crisis

At a March for Life in late January, Vice President J.D. Vance said, “…it is the task of our government to make it easier for young moms and dads to afford to have kids, to bring them into the world and to welcome them as the blessings that we know they are.”

As one of those moms, I can assure Vance that the current situation in our country does not make it easier to welcome a baby into a family.

One “solution” the current administration has unofficially proposed is to give people $5,000 as an incentive tot have a baby, along with a medal for those with six or more children and classes to educate women on menstruation and ovulation.
