Why are the US policies so anti-family, and why are we so complacent about it?

Question

Examples of Anti-family policy: Marriage Tax, one of the absolute worst family leave acts in any developed or semi developed country, limited access to health care, an economic system that often requires both parents to work with limited vacation time, limited access to appropriate day-care services, family assistance programs designed to discourage low-income families from getting married...etc...

Thank you

Answer 1

Yes. It is the influence of the Illuminati and trilateral commission. As we all know, the masons hate families.

Answer 2

Well, you do get a break on your income taxes and you could never pay (unless you were rich) the cost of the education a child receives!

I personally don't think families should get to claim a higher ground just because they can reproduce, while everyone else gets to subsidize parents. I am not saying I have a personal issue with it, however, I can see where some could.

Koala, say something constructive that has some merit! She has been in 7 months, and you guys were in for 12 years. Cut her some slack. Once we get rid of Bush, and many more Republicans in the House and Senate, things will change. The rich may not like it, but who cares. They have been getting all the breaks for over a decade, and the Republicans having all but eliminated the middle class proves it!

Answer 3

Like so many Americans. You complain but offer no solutions. Who do you think is going to straighten it all out? The professional politicians you vote for?

Answer 4

It's government knows best socialism.

Answer 5

you can thank the liberals...another way to raise taxes and cater to special interests. i agree with you but as long as you have people like the pelosi/reid regime granstanding and posturing for power, what can you do.

Answer 6

Vote for Ron Paul, he will straighten out the wrongs.
