Stimulus Money for Moms

Target:
moms
Sponsored by: 
With the federal government handing out money - "cash for clunkers", bailouts for banks, mortgage lenders, etc.  Why don't they start handing out some money to the Moms who cannot afford to stay at home?  It is frustrating to be a Mom who wants to stay home with her kids but cannot afford it... think of all the differences we could make in the future of our country if we could stay home with our kids and teach them how to be good citizens.  In an article on salary.com, the average salary for a stay at home mom would be $122,732!!! This is what we are worth.  I know I would be happy to make half of that, and be able to stay home with my kids.  Why should giant corporations who keep making mistake after mistake be rewarded with money from the government while Moms trying their hardest to make ends meet don't get a dime?  It is unfair and doesn't make any sense.  Let's show the world how powerful women can be!!!
