For years the feminists & women's libbers banged away at the childcare industry. They reckoned the nice unskilled but motherly types who minded their kids were being exploited. They wanted them to be better paid.

Well they got their wish, those nice girls & women are being better paid. Now of course those same women's libbers are bitching that child care is unaffordable. God help us, what the hell did they expect if a labor intensive industry paid it's labor a lot more?

Now they are banging away at the government, wanting the tax payer to pay more to subsidise the cost of the now very well paid child carers.

Will they never learn. Now the same people have been hammering away at the pay rates for the unskilled aged care workers. Just like the childcare industry, it does not take much skill to wipe bottoms, & change sheets. The main requirement in aged care, as in child care, is just what it says, care, & a caring personality.

Workers in these industries don't need years of schooling to learn to care for others. They have the caring disposition, or they don't. Both have always been low skilled workplaces, with correspondingly low pay. They offer secure employment to unskilled people who have the right attitude.

Keep up this type of claim for higher pay, & you end up with an unviable industry. Just as we have seen, with assembly workers in the car industry now losing their jobs, you can't pay more than a job is worth for very long, without a catastrophe

Hasbeen, you are doing all the daddies out there a great disservice by suggesting it is just the mummies and those dastardly 'feminists' that give a damn about their kid's childcare.

Wouldn't the fathers also care who looks after their kids, and whether paying them a reasonable wage might help insure we don't have uneducated young girls who can't get work anywhere else going into childcare work because that's all there is?
Are these parents to be vilified for wanting quality, qualified people caring for their vulnerable children?

You are very naive if you think caring for the aged in our residential facilities only involves being able "...to wipe bottoms, & change sheets."
Who washes, toilets, feeds, transfers, mobilizes, medicates, and socializes with these also very vulnerable members of our society?

Do you really want unskilled, poorly paid 'labourers' looking after our kids and aged parents?
Surely these carers should be better paid to actually care for humans, than those who look after cleaning our streets, toilets, road building, labourers on building sites etc?

Think about yourself in a few years maybe Hasbeen.
Who do you want looking after you?

Yes, the femminazis never stop whinging. They do some basic training for a VERY low skilled job at childcare, after all how hard is it to change a nappy and feed some kids at childcare and read 'em a story or two? They then whinge about their low wages, and then go on to whinge about high charges when they abandon motherhood and stick their own kids in childcare.

A woman's job is to raise her kids at home. If she's not doing that she's a bad mother. Tony Abbott is doing the right thing by trying to get more women to have more babies, but the femminazis will fight him all the way. Women just wanna be men.

i love woman
how goes that song..'thank heaven for little girls'

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!
"Consider the situation. Never has there been an administration so disciplined in secrecy, so precisely in lockstep in keeping information from the people at large and -- in defiance of the Constitution -- from their representatives in Congress.

Never has the powerful media oligopoly ... been so unabashed in reaching like Caesar for still more wealth and power.

Never have hand and glove fitted together so comfortably to manipulate free political debate, sow contempt for the idea of government itself, and trivialize the peoples' need to know." --

Bill Moyers written during George W. Bush administration

Lester,
Feminists don't represent women, they represent a cruel and warped ideology which makes all people subservient to the state and which has no place in a healthy society. Women working or taking part in public life has nothing to do with Feminism since Feminists don't believe in liberty and freedom of choice for women.
Since when has Abbott been pro family? The coalition is doing everything he can to disrupt and disadvantage Australian people with children and everything they can to turn over the economy to foreign investors and their itinerant third world workforce.

Lester You say some basic training to be child carers. Their training is actually a degree in child care. Parents are not allowed to apply for that job because they are not qualified.

Hasbeen has always got that anti feminist attitude about him, it is quite apparent in the words he chooses.
