U.S. Diaper Legislation?

The United States is in turmoil on many fronts yet someone is trying to push through legislation to give diapers to the poor. On the surface, this sounds like a caring idea, however, there are already many organizations specifically involved in helping with this. Another flaw in this legislation is that it is not the government's job to be a nanny to us. Even more serious is the fact that the diapers will only be distributed from day care centers . . . to people leaving their children at the day care centers. Mothers that stay at home and manage their lives on one income will not be included. Doesn't that show an agenda in the making? I remember one of the first women libber spokeswomen saying their goal is to get every woman in the work place . . . whether they like it or not.

You have to wonder about the liberal mind set who sees it a better option to have one's child basically raised by a stranger rather than making is easier and more possible to have a parent be home with their young children. Family is is the foundation of society and minimizing it doesn't bode well for the future outcome of the world.

You also have to consider what will happen if the stay-at-home mothers decide to claim discrimination over this benefit for only a certain segment of society. I'm willing to bet . . . nothing.
