Biden Administration: “Birthing Persons” or “Unpaid Caregivers” are Bad for the Economy

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

Happy early Mother’s Day to the women in charge with shaping our society. The vital role of a mother, arguably the most important responsibility one can take on, has been dismissed in recent years as society changes drastically. The woke agenda feels that the word “mother” is offensive and wants to replace the term with “birthing persons.” I have not heard anyone refer to fathers as “inseminating persons,” as part of the woke agenda is to eliminate the importance of women in society. Economic conditions have made it nearly impossible for the average family to survive on one income. Yet, those who can and do choose to stay home deserve appreciation for the role they play in our society.

The Biden Administration recently took a jab at stay-at-home mothers, claiming they are hurting our economy. His administration supports sending “free” money to “hard-working families” as long as they are receiving some income tax revenue. The schools can raise our children according to their way of thinking.

“[M]any Americans — particularly women — stay out of the workforce to care for their families, making it hard for businesses to attract and retain a skilled workforce and for the economy to grow. A BCG brief forecasts losses of $290 billion each year in gross domestic product in 2030 and beyond if the U.S. fails to address the lack of affordable child care.”

The cited report from the BCG refers to parenting as “unpaid caregiving” as it lowers the number of taxable workers. Instead of staying home with your children or elderly relative, the government believes you should move into “paid caregiving.” “About 1.8 million critical-care jobs, including nursing assistants, home health aides and childcare workers, are open, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics,” the report noted. The report also noted that these jobs often have terrible pay and poor benefits. Furthermore, the study noted that 40% of caregivers have missed “more than five days of work over the last year simply because their paid-care support has fallen through.” Other countries will laugh at the US for that one. They also talk about implementing a “government-run childcare system that begins at birth.” That is sad prospect. Even dogs have an 8 to 10 week grace period before their puppies can be adopted, a luxury not provided to women living in the financial capital of the world.

Caretaking roles are only seen as essential is they benefit the government. It is almost impossible for one 40-hour salary to support a family comfortably. Preschools and childcare centers often cost more than the salary a parent would bring home. And they wonder why there is a steep decline in the birth rate. The nuclear family has no place in woke America. Whether you stay home or choose a career, a mother’s role is essential.

Reminds me of the Rockefeller heir that told Aaron Russo that the govt. (and his family) wanted to get mothers out of child care and into paying jobs so tax revenue would increase. And this was 20+ years ago.

“It takes a village to raise a child” – African Proverb, according to Hillary Clinton.

Because when it comes to great examples of how to order society, you always want to look to Africa.

Millions of government employee parasites (yes redundant) certainly aren’t costing society trillions. Nor are the bottom feeding 535 pieces of shit that infest Congress, who STEAL and spend trillions of our wealth. For sure, the problem is not enough theft victims/slaves working for the betterment of the ruling elite.

Today’s 20 something woman doesn’t want to have children.

She wants money and status.

Then at 30 something she desperately wants a child if she can have one.

The future is grim.

If the rubber bursts or for whatever “accident”, be sure to kill the innocent. “Conservatives” are among the hypocrites.

I have never asked the Question, Why do we even need Government in our life.?
Is it because we cannot rule ourselves or is it they want Total control, from before Birth until after the grave.
