Now Hillary wants to spend $200 million tax dollars to train and support child-care workers. 

(CNSNews.com) - Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) on Wednesday introduced legislation that would allocate $200 million of federal money to fund benefits and training for professional child care providers.

“Too many child care workers today cannot even afford to stay in the profession,” Clinton said at a news conference in Washington, D.C. “The average child care worker earns $18,820 a year, well below the poverty rate. We ask them to take care of our children for a salary that often makes it nearly impossible for them to support and care for their own children.”

Clinton introduced the Quality Child Care for America Act, which she said would “create a $200 million fund for child care centers and home-based providers to improve quality as well as compensation for child care professionals.” Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.) introduced the same legislation the House.

Sorry - sounds like another government run program in order to try and take control of something to do with the children.  If this were to go through, what kind of guidelines would be placed on the respective child-care facilities?  Would this also be a way for the government to then start to dictate what is taught in each facility, under threat of no funding?

Hillary — keep your damn fingers out of my back pocket.  And you can slam me with your “its for the children” bullshit, I’m not buying it.  Too many times that “children” flag is flown to guilt us into coughing up my money to the government.
