The problem is that none of this is actually funny.


Eh, I can think of some much bigger problems. If we want a kinder world we need to vote for it.

There is much data that proves that women policymakers vote less often for war and more often for children/families/education.


True. Same data sets show that women policymakers run the economy into the ground. So pick your poison.


Depends on your time horizon.

When child care is provided, and everyone has access to quality education, national productivity (obviously) improves in the long run.

None of this is "obvious", nor has it ever been shown in practice.
