Just for clarity, I don't deny child care can be ridiculously expensive. I just think that with no kids, I shouldn't be responsible for paying for it.
It has become a somewhat selfish POV for me, because all the "free" things enacted (I'm looking at you ACA) or suggested are all directed at people other than me, but they want me to pay for them, even though I get zero benefits. I literally can think of zero "free" things that are "human rights" that the left pushes that benefit me in any way. Pretty much all of them punish me. So much for my "human rights".
