Anyone has sources for the calculations/plans that support the amounts ?

I would love to share this to some friends

These figures for doing these things are inflated too. Childcare, healthcare, everything, private equity, and consolidation, and lack of enforcement of antitrust laws has led to price fixing, on all of this. None of this costed this much in our parents day.
