Part of the high cost of child support is that workers are supporting a huge cast of characters - hidden in overhead expenses and taxes.
Consider that the combined tax load of federal, state and local governments take roughly 44% of the GDP.
That leaves the worker with 56%.
It's no surprise that families with only one worker could support themselves and their children in 1900s, but not in 2010s.

No, it was the right answer.
It was your assumption that was wrong.

I'm confident that i'm right. The issue is that not a single one would actually admit it.

THIS IS TOTAL BS! IF this is happening then all they have to do is find a lawyer! Now, I'm sure that there are people out there who do this, but a threat of a lawsuit should fix the problem!

You betcha the only legal form of murder ever since the dawn of time. If you want to get away with murder try abortion and the good thing is a baby can't fight you back while say your sucking out his brain.

Abortion should be and ALWAYS BE LEGAL! Don't like it? Go kick rocks.

Seems like some employers doesn't want pregnant women to take Maternity Leave, spend time and money training temporary workers etc.

This is an anonymous forum. I doubt anyone is afraid of being tracked down. I've never had an abortion, but I have no problem saying that if I were to get pregnant and I didn't want to be, I'd be on the phone with PP in a heartbeat.

People get so fired up about this stuff. anyone that has a problem with abortion is simply unable to logically look at other peoples situations. These people and there backwards thinking are what's turning this planet into a giant steaming turd. If that's the way you think in this day in age then go live in the middle east.
You should be able to get an abortion at walmat if you want to IMO. What someone does to there own body is their own business. of course all the religious whack jobs out there that still think the earth was created with magic have trouble understanding anything outside there own insignificant and pointless lives That they base on a book of lies, contadictions and fairy tales written by other backwards people that where dead before we knew the earth was round.

go figure LOL
