Goes without saying they don't need *fathers.* This is 2021, when hip conservative commentators are willing to promote single parenthood/broken families in the name of natalism.

I should say, at least they're honest about what the effect is. Hundreds of billion of dollars to tell mothers they can have children and their families don't need to send *anyone* into the labor force. Government will pay them. Welfare ethic replaces work ethic. https://t.co/ENrBtVmdno

Correction: Garcetti's focus on homelessness started in his 2013 campaign https://t.co/Mrmx677Z8S
The giant bond measure passed in 2016, along with a quarter-cent sales tax increase in 2017 to "prevent and combat homelessness."
Both visible, abject failures. https://t.co/ZBKITt06Mw

PS Garcetti's recent campaign focused on one issue: homelessness, and how he was going to solve it. Voters approved a $1.2 Billion bond issue to deal with the problem. Seems a complete failure. https://t.co/2RnkdUwC68
