On campaign stops I ask for a show of hands if someone’s heard young people say they’re not gonna have kids cuz they don’t see how they can make it happen given the economy, environment etc. Several always do. Such hopelessness should not exist in the richest country in the world

We have the greatest economy in the history of this nation right now. There are more jobs than workers, maybe they shouldn’t have kids so the don’t grow up as the same entitled little shits they were. No work ethic no discipline everyone gets a trophy.

I had no idea you were still a candidate. Hmmm.

I'm childless by choice and don't you call me or anyone else choosing childlessness "hopeless." Offspring are not a monument to hopefulness. You have no idea what you're talking about, and you can stop now.

The economy is booming and maybe it’s one of their unborn kids that will fix climate change. They need to stop giving in to mainstream media’s propaganda. There has never been a better time to be alive. Practice gratitude and abundance.

And this planet is over populated and we have often had generations who are not as interested in procreation. I agree about the despair but it is okay for people to put more thought into adding more people to this over taxed planet.

I felt the same way when I was young because I too, had no idea what the hell I was talking about. I thought I did, but as I grew up and continued working on life, I realized my misjudgement of what I'm capable of.

Go cuddle with your crystals and leave this race for real candidates.

I read 'Silent Spring' when I was ten. My parents shouldn't have left me alone with such books If they ever wanted grandchildren.

sorry to say, the economy won't matter if we do not first have a "sustainable livable planet" for which to "feed, nourish" the children. For too long we have lived with "economy vs. environment!". It's too long overdue to put our environment first!

My very own 23 year old daughter has said these very words. Thank you for your unprecedented stance and well thought out plans which focus on and support future generations. I deeply respect and value you for all that you are doing. #Marianne2020 #IStandWithMarianne
