Women Overwhelming Offended At Trump’s Idea Of $5,000 “Baby Bonuses”

The Trump administration is obsessed with women having more babies, and they’ve gone as far as to direct infrastructure projects to areas with higher birth rates and even considered giving out $5,000 “baby bonuses” to women who have a child. This offer did not go over well with American women who don’t want to be viewed as little more than a baby factory. This administration has shown that they have no respect for women, and that they also have no idea how much it actually costs to have a child. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what’s happening.

The Trump administration for some reason, possibly due to Elon Musk's influence, is really obsessed with how many babies you're having, right? They want women to go out there and just have as many babies as you can, because that's the only thing you're good for. In the eyes of this administration, you're not a human being. You don't have goals and ambitions or drive or intelligence. You in fact, are nothing more than a pair of ovaries and a uterus. And if you're not using those, then well, what good are you to this administration? They want you to get knocked up as many times as humanly possible. I mean, hell in his first address after he was sworn in as vice president, JD Vance, said, quote, I want more babies in the United States of America. And then just a couple weeks after that, we had the Department of Transportation issue, the memo saying, Hey, um, direct infrastructure projects only to areas that have high birth rates.

We wanna make sure that the people out there having babies have the best roads and bridges. Anybody else, sorry, you haven't had a kid in a few years, you're gonna have to drive over some potholes. Again, just a weird obsession with forcing women to only be baby makers. And then came what most women say is the most insulting part of it, the $5,000 baby bonuses to women that have more than six babies, which unfortunately a lot of people didn't know that there was that second caveat. So anybody out there that immediately ran out to get pregnant so they could give $5,000, you're gonna be in for quite a shock because if it's not your sixth kid or more, you don't get a penny. But even if you did get that $5,000, women are out there explaining because the men in government clearly don't understand. $5,000 basically does nothing.

$5,000 would be spent before the baby's born, or at the very longest time they would have that money. The moment the baby is born, the average cost of birth, not of prenatal care, which is thousands of dollars as well. The average cost of birth here in the United States with insurance coverage is $3,000 with insurance. So right off the top, just the act of going to the hospital and having the baby, assuming there are no complications at all, $3,000. So more than half your money's gone right there. The other 2000 of course, will in fact be gone due to the prenatal care and the doctor's visits that the woman will have to get ultrasounds, all kinds of stuff. Maybe you have a couple bucks left over for a gender reveal party,

But at that point, it doesn't matter because this administration has no idea how much it costs to raise a child either. According to the most recent estimates here in the United States, a two income family would still have to make 311,000, or excuse me, a dual income family is expected to spend $311,000 raising a child, $311,000 to raise a child. But this administration wants to give you 5,000. Here is what just a few women had to say, 5,000. That doesn't go very far. It costs 200, 300 bucks just to buy a car seat for these kids. I just feel like it's really just insulting. If you want people to have more kids, make housing more affordable, make food more affordable, another one had suggested, uh, uh, go ahead and tell Uncle Sam that what he needs to give you to make him Daddy Sam and she of course, suggested universal healthcare. If you genuinely want people to have more babies, you have to have an economy that is conducive to that. And most women, uh, that the guardian spoke to for this piece, admitted that the economy's the number one thing. Even the women who say.
