[quote] So save money in the bank just call it a motherhood  tax.  How is imposing tax on everyone will help anything? Btw, it sounds you have never ever owned any successful money making business in your life and that is why you can make these egregious demand. By the way  you sound like an entitled   government employee . Please tell me this is true?[/quote]

Have you traveled much?  You sound like a card-carrying provincial American.

People from other countries are aghast when they hear our maternity and early childcare policies.  [/quote]

So you are an entitled  government employee aren't you? I did travel a lot mostly for business purpose and still I don't see any reason why we should pay women to have babies.[/quote]society is more equal that way.
Why must the woman be without a paycheck and not the man too? Should hee not also make do without a salary?[/quote]

Because they are not providing any goods and services for which compensation is deserved. They wanna get paid for doing nothing which  I don't believe is fair.[/quote]

It's discriminatory.  Period.  In order for society to continue to exist there must be more humans.  Men + women provide that.  Women must take time for their bodies to heal and, in most opinions, should take more time to care for their children.  During all of this, women are w/o a paycheck.  Men, in large part, are not.  This is so despite the fact that women perform "jobs" that are as much, if not more, important.

If you think maternity leave is "doing nothing" than you are a complete dipshit who is either a 1) man or 2) person w/o kids. Don't give me any shit about this.  I used to be use.  I believed as you do.  Until I had a child.  Having a child is the hardest, and most important, job of all.  Unless you want a society of crass, irresponsible, assholes.  No?  You want a civilized society? Then than the parents. [/quote]

Its not about my felling on this matter. Its about the fact business should compensate individual for basically not performing their duties. I don't believe they should. Its completely unproductive solution  from business perspective which would also deter businesses  from hiring women.[/quote]
