What we pay for "non-traditional" families ...
Next time you hear some left-winger bitching 'bout the cost of the Iraq war, tell him/her this:
"The Institute for American Values just released a groundbreaking report this week called The Taxpayer Costs of Divorce and Unwed Childbearing. Using very conservative calculations, the study estimates that fragmented families cost the American taxpayer at least $112 billion a year. Put another way, over the last five years American taxpayers have spent $500 billion on the war in Iraq and $560 billion on broken families."
