Thank you! I feel like I'm taking crazy pills when I complain about the obsession with manufacturing when our essential social services like healthcare, education, and childcare are crumbling in front of us. The entire country seems obsessed with factories and we've completely taken for granted the fact that we need educated, healthy workers who don't have to worry about expensive, poor quality, or non-existent childcare.
If we made big investments in teachers, nurses, and childcare workers this would not only help women, but open up a whole world of possibilities for everybody. It would especially help future generations and payoff exponentially in the long term.

This is such a moving article! Thank you for putting it into this perspective!
My husband sent me this article this morning https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/much-mother-worth-140-315-165827167.html and I was wondering about your take on it? You may have already written a related column (I'm a new subscriber who found you via tiktok)
Thank you for your work!

So perfectly said
There is a word missing in the sentence:
"For the first time in over a century, a generation of women has seen relatively economic progress. "
As long as old white men are in charge, women will lose.
I AGREE‼️‼️‼️
