That's quite the flamebait. So the theory is that we don't have affordable childcare today because of where we'll be demographically in twenty years?

Right now it's 9 states that have 50% of the population. In 20 years it will be 8, but this is very much a today issue.

I'm going to go the other way and say that white, older, rural, conservative Americans care about child care as much as anyone else. And if anything, older Americans have a habit of donating their time for free child care.
