What a load of trash! Everytime I hear the term "level the playing field" it just seems like another way to screw the hard working people of this once great and going downhill fast country!
Doesn't "level the playing field" mean taking from a hard worker and giving to a non-worker or in this case the very young children of someone who probably shouldn't have had kids because now the hard worker has to pay for those kids?
