  • You get paid that much PER MONTH? That’s 18,000 per year.

    In the US, most people just get tax credits. They don’t come anywhere near $18k.

    If you’re poor enough, you’ll qualify for WIC which is state dependent, generally $25 per month per kid under 4 years, ~$50 per month for the mom, and limited to certain food/child items.

    Thank you for sharing.

    On one hand, it’s disgusting that we don’t have a similar system. Yet at the same time, you’re the “proof” against such a system and the reason conservatives would never support it - that people won’t work anymore if we had this system. Neither of you have a full time job.

    There has to be a better compromise.
