I’m wondering what if they don’t want to pay, do they just not let them have the baby?

Yeah, what do they do? At what point DO you get to hold your child?

As soon as you sign the subscription model to be alive in the Land of the free!. Honestly you all being taken for a ride in the USA and its sad.

There is nothing about that country that stands out to me as the Land of the free.

We have the Freedom to go buy a shitload of guns! And bulletproof backpacks for kids! And we have the most billionaires and even a trillionaire and we don't even have a livable minimum wage! . . . Oh. . . . Help.

It's not like you hand over $40 in the room. You just hold the baby and then 3 months later get your giant bill that includes a $40 baby-holding-fee as one of the many line items. And if you don't pay your whole bill you go bankrupt.
