[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like DC is putting small businesses out of business and increasing unemployment for mostly non white women.  That is just an absurd requirement and monetarily infeasible.[/quote]
Why so negative? This also encourages these women to pursue further education that will increase their income earning potential in the future. [/quote]

It doesn't make sense. It really doesn't. It's just not needed. It also significantly increases the cost of child care. Plus, you want someone to get a college degree to make minimum wage. Who would go into childcare?[/quote]
It increases the cost because providers can command higher salaries. I’m okay with that and would prefer providers to have education and training. [/quote]

This is absurd.

None of them are going to go to college because of this. And if you have kids (it sounds like you clearly don't), you know how good someone is with children has literally nothing to do with their education (and I say this as something with multiple advanced degrees).

This is yet another in a long line of ideas from the DC government that maybe sound good in theory, but in practice make the world worse for everyone.
