X, Many folks without kids are routinely cavalier about most issues involving families and children. I got nailed by libertarians for arguing for pro-young family bias in the tax code. I brought up a book called the two income trap and people refused to consider the conclusions. When i was my daughters age, my wife did not work and i was a trainee making very little but managed to get by with two kids. My daughter who lives in similar housing as i did works as does hubby and barely makes ends meet(also with 2 kids). The answer by the libbys was more or less that they were stupid to have kids given their circumstances. Children much less healthy children did not concern them at all and they felt little responsibility to help. They often do not see the future of the nation tied into a healthy and educated younger generation. In europe the mean age in about 25 years will be 55 or so. Thank God in the US it will rise slightly to 35. This comes from immigration and our pro-work, pro family bias. The euros only want to vacation and the hell with the future of the species. Here we work hard for our kids and our grandkids. That after all is the future. Mike
