The only thing that is preventing basic living essentials for costing more is whether the capitalist class feel like rising the price or not. (lemmy.world)

I'm sure all the pro-life politicians who want to save the poor babies will be very concerned about this and congressional investigations will be forthcoming.

Right?

Nah babies can live just fine with cloth diapers, they'll just tell you to use those if you're not motivated enough to hustle for bare essentials

Diapers? Those babies should be shitting into their bootstraps.

The work required of us in an economy like this is obscene. Comparing deals and coupons and dodging scams and trying ti save time while every corpo is trying to waste it. I'm not a mother, yet, but imagine realizing you can't afford disposable diapers this week and this is the week you have to spend extra hours cleaning and sanitizing cloth diapers. And all the extra stress on top. Thats if you could afford kids in the first damn place.
