High quality of health care if you go to the NON-socialist hospitals.

And my salary is the same in both places.

Tough decision, eh?
$12,000 to have a kid now-a-days????

When I had mine, the last one 18 years ago, I think it was $3,000!! The one about 5 years before that was about $1,800!!

Okay, you math whizzes. I want the percent increase on that. (Please provide a formula as I am trying to learn how to do this myself! Thanks)
