Any service job where most people who are polite and literate can do the job well - there's no goods produced and no labor specialisation benefit, and so get hit more heavily by taxes.
- eru 11y agoThere's labour specialization benefit just from allowing parents to engage in more specialised labour, isn't there?
- meric 11y agoYes I mentioned those further up the thread. Childcare is unaffordable for workers who can be replaced by most people. or if one is a worker especially valued by the economy, such as one of a few nuclear scientists or doctor or software engineer.
- eru 11y agoWhat about higher labour productivity that comes from one adult looking after more children than their own family?
- meric 11y agoThat labour productivity as mentioned will have to be twice or three times as much to make it worth it. If you have 3 kids, sending them to childcare will cost as much as the wages that would be paid in a full time job, even though in the childcare centre one adult is looking after 15 kids, due to taxes and rent.
