The loud promotion of news that teenage motherhood is at an all time low ( I posted an article about it on another thread) is part of the MSM show. This teenage mom study was release way last February. I heard about it on two MSM outlet this week, 8 months after the fact. MSM is scrambling to get positive news out there, and this sociology study will make people happy.
Not much talk about the loss of household income, higher insurance cost, more on food stamps, the increase of people signing up for disability from SS, and the debt that is unsubstainable. Nope, happy day's are here.
