My friends, I have grave news. Around the country, in communities large and small, after-school programs are seeing fewer donations. And without money to maintain their budgets, some are on the verge of shutting down.<\/p>\n

Many after-school programs have resorted to cutting hours of operation and eliminating field trips. But that\u2019s not enough to bridge the gap. It\u2019s not just nonprofits &hellip; state programs are also cutting back funding. Fears are mounting that kids will be lost to the streets, forced to stay home alone, or turn into gangsters &hellip; without more money. Quick.<\/p>\n

This is bad, folks. Already our children are being told that Santa\u2019s sack is going to be smaller than last year. Already parents are facing the agonizing choice between spending money they don\u2019t have to present the illusion that all is well — and actually telling their children they can\u2019t have every material thing they want for Christmas. And now, this!<\/p>\n

We are well past the idea, in this country, that parents are actually responsible for their own children. So let\u2019s forget the option that somebody who had the child &hellip; could stay at home with the child. And forget about somebody making a profit on childcare. For unknown reasons, that\u2019s apparently not possible.<\/p>\n

There is only one other option. A Child Bailout. If we do it for Wall Street, for the UAW &ndash; can\u2019t we find a few hundred billion, or even a few trillion &hellip; for the children?<\/p>\n
