It has been simmering below the surface for decades and can be traced back to President Richard M. Nixon’s 1971 veto of federally funded universal child care, which created our bifurcated approach to child care that considers the needs of some and not others.

Almost 50 years ago, 20 years of 'D'emocrat Administrations, not to say years of 'D' dominated US Congresses and this veto was what created this CRISIS?! I seem to remember a big witch-trial scandal in the late 70s involving child care and molestations. Just imagine that with Federal fundings involved, would this law have stayed in place? Common conceit amongst these writers, they assume perfection where history shows anything but.

This is the author; "Anna K. Danziger Halperin is the Andrew W. Mellon postdoctoral fellow in women’s history and public history at the New-York Historical Society. She is writing a book on the history of child care, motherhood and race since the 1960s."

Don’t look now, Anna, but it is NOT my taxpayer money that should fund the care of OTHER people’s kids.

IF you want kids-—pay for them yourself.

NO welfare should be paid for more than 1 child. I am tired of paying for LITTERS of welfare kids.
