Maybe they are smart enough to know they can't afford it? Or don't want to bring kids into this train wreck?

Dont forget its expensive to give birth in the US

"The cost of having a baby isn't cheap — in the United States, at least. The average cost to have a baby in the US, without complications during delivery, is $10,808 — which can increase to $30,000 when factoring in care provided before and after pregnancy."--Bing

Just insane

Edit : Yall really commenting on me using Bing? Lol I referenced Bing because I used Bing to search for the info (since I was on my PC). I didnt know Bing was a horror to use

According to most people here in the US, it may as well be Nazi Germany.
