Of course, my guess is that some will say that this doesn't matter at all because the real fault is with those hotel owners who charge so much to begin with and so the poor should not have to pay anything. SMH!!
Which brings up another problem. When you have more people from open borders and mass immigration forever increasing demand things cost more regardless of who is paying for it.

They don't even make a dent in the public assistance enrollee rates by race/ethnicity.

Why can't 'race realist' conservatives see the need for birth control and family planning through govt agencies like Planned Parenthood? Do they enjoy complaining about poor women having far more births than educated women while proposing no solution?

Last I checked, nobody was trying to outlaw birth control. There is plenty of stuff you can buy at the local drugstore, and double up on protection - something for him and something for her - just to be extra safe. It's not exactly rocket science.

There will never be a solution just as long as the Democrat's socialistic programs keep paying them to have more kids. There already are free birth control clinics around. Planned Parenthood also did abortions and that's what many on the right objected to.

If medicaid pays for more than 50% of births in this country, it is a definite sign that capitalists do not pay enough for the two legged commodity to reproduce, forget raising costs. If the owners refuse paying maintenance costs a building crumbles.

The poor do not have many kids these days, once this fertility trend became obvious abortion loving Republicans reinvented themselves as pro lifers over night.

My wife and I have 2 children. We didn't go into debt to have either of them. Now, we had jobs and health insurance, and owned - with the Bank - our home.

I may or may not go into debt to send them to college.

By the way, the stupidity/ignorance of "when has it ever been affordable" ignores what the human race did until about 100 years ago, which was produce that which they needed for themselves, or that which their labors could be used to purchase that they couldn't produce.
