To me, maybe this is part of the point? We systematically undervalue women's contributions, women's work. And in a context where the consumer is the sole person paying, maybe it's hard to fix that. But in this context, if it's the taxpayer paying, I think it's fair to say that they're paying for national prestige and if you think the women aren't delivering that at the same rate as the men are, that's your problem, not theirs. Otherwise, the tax dollars just go to funding the inequality that already exists society.
