Wages for Housework

I wish Prescod and Jones-Schellenberg could hear what they said from a different perspective. I am a mother, I work outside my home, I do not expect the taxpayers to support my children and me. Or: I am a father, I work outside my home. I do not expect the taxpayers to support my children and me. Or: I have no children because I understand how they are created and since I’m not financially secure I take care of myself so there will be no government-dependent children. How have you earned your “right to welfare and a lot more”? The government’s job is to protect this country. The job of the citizens is to be responsible adults.
