I'm hoping your friends are libertarians who disagree with the current political zeitgeist in Massachusetts.
It would be very depressing to hear that your friends are Liberals who publicly support these daycare laws and then privately flaunt them by 1) favoring non-American workers and 2) paying them in cash to avoid taxes
