UNLESS YOU JUST DEPEND ON OTHER AMERICANS TO FOOT THE BILL FOR YOU

From the Wall Street Journal: 

Just Had a Baby? Prepare to Spend $233,610 Raising It

The cost of child-rearing rose 3% in 2015, the government says


At this point, with tens of millions of people on government assistance, now you have a good idea what it cost US per person each year, (you and me) for others to raise children.

Hopefully President Trump will finally hold people more accountable in the future.

I have noticed a big trend of non-married people having babies, and this usually means, good old uncle sam pays for this birth.
Great way to start out their life, already getting uncle same to pay the bills.

my wife and I did something real crazy, we saved money until we had enough to take care of our children. I know that's an unusual concept but it seemed to work pretty good

Good thing that Amazon will now accept EBT so that not only can users purchase things on line they can have them delivered to the inner city.
