=== Why One Primary Wage Earner? (02:25) ===

[00:00:00]  I'm curious, in the past, when Americans were much poorer, how did they take care of their children?
[00:00:13]  Maybe part of Make America Great Again is actually that people will figure out how to take care of their children.
[00:00:21]  But I know you need two wage earners.
[00:00:24]  Why do you need two wage earners?
[00:00:26]  Maybe when you have children.
[00:00:29]  It works out better in many cases to have one primary wage earner and one parent primarily taking care of the home.
[00:00:38]  But to say that is almost like saying the N-word on a college campus.
[00:00:45]  By the way, the N-word, do you realize that it's the only word that one cannot say?
[00:00:52]  There is no other English word that cannot be said, no matter what the context.
[00:01:01]  There's hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies for the fossil fuel industry.
[00:01:06]  Does anybody know what he's referring to?
[00:01:09]  I've got to look that up.
[00:01:13]  Hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies.
[00:01:15]  All I know is the fossil fuel industry has made the United States for the first time in half a century, or maybe since almost the beginning of oil, self-sufficient, the discovery of oil.
[00:01:28]  Self-sufficient.
[00:01:30]  That's why with all this instability in the Middle East, you're not feeling it at the gas pump.
[00:01:38]  Tax breaks for billionaires.
[00:01:40]  He hates that.
[00:01:42]  What if it's good for the economy, therefore more people are employed if there's tax breaks for millionaires?
[00:01:48]  It doesn't matter.
[00:01:50]  Because they don't ask what helps people.
[00:01:52]  They ask what hurts the rich.
[00:01:55]  That's important to them.
[00:01:58]  Inequality is animating on the left, always has been, since Marx.
[00:02:06]  All right, 39. Vice President Biden, infant care is more expensive than in-state public college tuition in more than half the country.

=== The Case for Free Care (00:28) ===

[00:02:17]  Do you support free universal infant care?
[00:02:22]  Go ahead.
[00:02:24]  His answer is listed.
[00:02:28]  There should be free universal infant care, but here's the deal.
[00:02:32]  Okay, that's it.
[00:02:34]  There should be free universal infant care.
[00:02:38]  That's it.
