You can't clothe a baby for a year with $5k? We did it for basically fuck all. Had a load of stuff handed on from other parents, got some stuff from ebay and in sales. The fuck are you dressing the kid in, solid gold? Also how much is this person spending on diapers? There is no way you're spending $5k on nappies and clothes for a baby in one year, utter lunacy. Not that I agree with anything that Trump does, but this seems like a huge overreaction. I'm not from the US so I don't know how expensive this stuff is over there, but if it really costs this much to clothe one baby for a year then fuck me and I'm shocked.
A lot of these people have been conditioned to spend their money like idiots while complaining they don't have enough.
These are the kinds of people who are "too good" to shop at Walmart and subscribe to things they can be getting for free.
Good, good, keep othering and finding reasons to despise your fellow working class. This shit is exactly what the oligarchs want.
both can be true, 5k isn't enough to pay for a delivery at a hospital, but should absolutely be enough to clothe a baby for a year or two.
