So you would enjoy living in a society were the children of the poor enter adulthood illiterate and completely uneducated, without the basic life skills necessary in a modern society. I think our worldviews are simply too different for us to come to an understanding here. All I can say is that you present yourself as a very unsympathetic person.

Nowadays we have the internet, in the past we had libraries, in addition they always had their own families to educate them. > All I can say is that you present yourself as a very unsympathetic person I could say the same for you. After all you do not seem to care about the employer that has to pay multiple employees who do not work at all due to maternity leave nor do you care about the taxpayer.

- dependenttypes 6y agoNo, why would we?
