But, you are the one using the FMLA as an example, Rhythm, not me. I'm confused because you are arguing something I didn't argue against. :S
Doesn't matter if it is high living. In my opinion, people who cannot afford to have babies should not. Do I think we should police who can have kids? Fuck no. Do I think it is my business and that I should make any move to stop anyone from doing such a thing? No. Do I think the government or my taxes should pay anyone for being pregnant and having a baby? Hell fucking no. If I want to support someone for having a kid, I'll make that decision myself, thank you very much. Nonetheless, I do agree with you on actual disability, as in complications. That is not being pregnant, that is getting ill. Exactly the same if you are injured on the job. Do you think we should pay people who make a decision at home to be a drug addict, which is far more disabling than pregnancy in many cases? Sorry, bud, but we were basically paying your wife to take time off so you can expand your brood. I'm not saying you shouldn't take advantage of what is there, but piss poor planning is not my problem and all that, amirite?
