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?”

They get free child care and still will not go to work. Why work when the government will give them your money for them not to work?

Wow! So, since I’m retired and on a fixed income, I don’t care that it costs me over 50% more now to fill my tank than before Dufus became President? Time for a reality check, you twit!

Thee rats simple minds get intensely focused on their talking points. They can cram any facts into their existing narrative

Well by this logic, gas prices have never mattered because we've never had paid leave.

Truth is...we have to stop creating subsidies for single women to use having kids as a justification for not working.

If Creepy Joe was looking for a female minority senator even dumber than Kommiela, he could have looked to the Hawaiian Islands and found this dope.

Ditbrain doesn’t think that if gas costs more....that’s less money to spend on other things....like child care.

With Kamala out of the Senate, Hirono is the dumbest member. So much for that stereotype.

That gal from Hawaii is not a deep thinker, but just what the Democrats ordered. There is no way but what high prices don’t affect everybody, whether it’s for gas or other things. Senators & Congressmen/women are there to represent the people, not the Democrat party. If they can’t or won’t do that, then they need to be gone. Why bother to wait for the next election? They have not lived up to their oath of office.

She’s from Hawaii, where has was already expensive but you can’t drive very far anyway. Her state is hardly representative of the country as a whole.
