Perhaps this is a way to stimulate an economy with too many job vacancies but we are nowhere near that (despite some claiming this will help put people back to work)

It is such a touchy subject that I can see why it was brought up.... Solid political move imo. I sound like a bad guy being against it when the majority would benefit from it.
It's funny that you keep on the 100K mark saying they can make it work. If you want to stick with this narrative might I suggest you do some digging and see how much it costs for a family of 3 to live?

We menu plan and take lunches to work, rarely eat out, watch for sales before we make purchases, have a strict budget. Why? Because we have to, and we make over your 100K threshold. I'm not looking for a hand out, but man it's quite annoying when someone who has no idea about life with a kid thinks they have it all figured out.
