The average cost of raising a child to age 18 in America is $300K. If you accept Trump's paltry "baby bonus" of $5K, you've willingly become just another contractor he's stiffing.
Trump's proposed $5,000 "baby bonus" is a drop in the bucket compared to the $13,000 it costs annually to raise a child in the US. This amount barely covers basics like hospital births or child care. Real family support would include expanded tax credits, paid leave, and affordable child care.
Opinion | The Trump White House’s ‘baby bonus’ proposal ignores the true cost of parenthood
$5,000 is a start — but it’s not nearly enough.
