@Richard Im not sure thats a con, it means men can do it now too, and women still have the option... Good thats equality, both sexes should have the option to be a stay-at-home wife/dad

@Richard

How does a man being the stay at home dad double the tax base?

@Richard @freemo If the man stays at home and the woman goes to work - assuming that they both produce the same labor - then this does not change the amount of labor performed, or the amount of taxes collected.

When you throw in the fact that women are knocked out of the work force temporarily when they are pregnant, this actually *shrinks* the amount of labor performed, and the amount of taxes collected.

@Richard @freemo Yes, and if you slow your roll then you'll see that freemo is *not* assuming that. He needed to be told that usually, both the men and women work.

You're talking past each other, I wanted to make it so you two weren't doing that.
