$1.4 trillion unpaid cooking, cleaning and caring for children according to Oxfam

I think males and females should be treated equally, but the media seems to be fixated of women.

Why don't they just admit that a majority of working mothers are completely overwhelmed by the modern lifestyle.

It's very evident that a majority of working mothers are very, very overwhelmed and the media and Democrats are feeding into the desperation by promising and manipulating into supporting lots of social programs to make the stress of working mother in 2020 better.

I am all for women in the workforce but it's obvious that their health collapses from 40 hours a week of work.

Why don't they just admit that the 2020 working full-time plus some mother lifestyle is causing a tremendous amount of stress and isn't good for women, men or society.

It's not realistic to expect men to stay at home in most circumstances either and care for the children as men in general are not happy without work.

Today, it's $1.4 trillion in free cleaning, cleaning and caring for children. 4 days ago it was the cost to give birth.

Every day, there is many stories on free daycare, student loan forgiveness because an overwhelming majority of graduates are women so they naturally owe a vast majority of the debt.

this makes no sense. Why would you get paid for doing things around your own house?

Well, that is all good in theory. Now, how would we put that at least some of that into practicality?

Nobody is going to pay you to keep your own room clean or fix your own food.

If women would stay out of the workforce, salaries would double, cost of living would decrease and one man could support an entire family like it was 1959 all over again.

But they they would have to pay for the services, like laundry, cooking and cleaning, they currently get for free. Of course there would have to be a markup on the costs of those services, so they would likely go backwards.

Well maybe Bernie and Lizzy can offer people single payer household services in exchange for their votes.

While we're compensating women for doing their own laundry and dishes we should find a way to compensate men for all the free hand jobs they give every year.

We obviously don't hang around the same men.

So an allowance for doing chores? Fits right in with the concept of government as your daddy a.k.a. paternalism
