Hello,
Can someone tell me who caters least to families, children, and "no turn between 7-9 a.m." signs in the upcoming election?
Thanks!

I am tired of having to deal with legislation favouring parents/children while those of us who choose not to reproduce end up being taxed for it.
When you assume...

Neither necessarily may be the case, both are inflamatory, both make unwarranted assumptions, and both insult.
Not having children was your choice. The rest of us need not be punished for it. An educated society benefits all.
In short, this is a diverse group of people, so, respectfully, please choose your words more carefully in the future.
