It never ceases to amaze me how many people on the Left see the federal government as their parent. The whole narrative from crazy white liberal women about Tim Walz being the dad they always wanted ... it's just creepy. And bizarre.
The government is not your mommy.
The government is not your daddy.
No, that's what your family is for, you know, your actual mommy and daddy. That's how it's supposed to work. Americans were never meant to rely on the government for their basic needs because if they do they are never really truly free. Tick the government off? They could cut you off.
And seeing someone like Chasten Buttigieg who you know is probably still home breastfeeding his and Pete Buttigieg's twins (IT'S A JOKE, settle down) snarking at JD Vance for even suggesting grandmas can provide childcare for a family is all too telling.
He'd much rather make you and I pay for it ...
“Ask grandma to watch them for free” is not policy. https://t.co/fVrBqHbQdZ

Why is childcare even a concern at the federal level? I know that might sound heartless but at the end of the day, it's really local thing. Oh, I know, Democrats love to pretend it's somehow their job to provide care for our children (to pander for votes at the expense of others), but this really shouldn't be a national discussion in the first place.
Hey Chasten, how are the kiddos?

Quick question- how many EV charging stations was your hubby supposed to build with the $7.5B that Biden approved? Wasn’t it like HALF A MILLION and yet not even 10 have been built after 3 years……
Maybe he should worry about that and less…
Ahem.
It is, in fact, the solution that millions of young mothers use.

And it works great. My mother-in-law watched both of my kids when they were little so I could work. I did pay her a small amount but it was nothing like what I would have had to pay the daycares in our town PLUS the kids loved spending time with her. It was a win-win.
Come to think of it, maybe this should be policy.
Especially because it works.
