Exactly, the question is...how to pay for the daycare. My son went to daycare. When I went to grad school, it was half my salary. Literally half. Thankfully I had the US GI Bill, otherwise I'd have been hosed. Dealing with the churn in society, and lets not argue semantics, if you're on welfare it's likely the skills you have don't meet the market needs. We need an education system that enables people to learn to fish, while giving them fish to survive/take care of their families. Right now, that system is slightly borked. Online education is awesome at providing access to many people, the problem is getting employers to recognize the value of the degrees/certificates that result. Some do, many don't. I totally get it, the quality is all over the place. Then again, so is the quality of in-person institutions.

That's why I built my own car from bauxite and iron ore. And my own computer from sand, in my own silicon-refining furnace.
