Domestic work is still work. Shouldn't that be acknowledged, credited, and compensated? Instead of excluding this necessary labor and forcing homemakers and carers into dependence, document it, if that's the issue. The same is true when children care for elderly parents and grandparents, or the disabled, or any of the hundred other scenarios that occur that we don't see. Otherwise, what, every spouse and partner should register themself as a business and invoice their household? How perfectly transactional would that be. "I love that what we share, to the limit that our long term interests intersect with sound fiscal and economic practice, my love. Please don't forget to bill me at the after hours rate for asking you to move my laundry over."
