Dutch Feminazis Want to Punish Educated Mothers

Don't let Hillary! know about this idea:
Sharon Dijksma, a leading parliamentarian of the Dutch Labour Party (PvdA) wants to penalise educated stay-at-home women. “A highly-educated woman who chooses to stay at home and not to work – that is destruction of capital,” she said in an interview last week. “If you receive the benefit of an expensive education at society’s expense, you should not be allowed to throw away that knowledge unpunished.”

Hence her proposal to recover part of the cost of their education from highly-educated women who decide not to seek paid work. Between 2001 and 2005 the number of Dutch women aged between 15 and 65 who were out on the labour market rose from 55.9 to 58.7 per cent. Dijksma says she wants to stimulate more women to join the work force. In the municipal elections earlier this month the PvdA became the biggest party in the Netherlands
thanks to the Muslim vote. The PvdA is generally expected to win the general elections next year, when the 35 year old Dijksma, who has been an MP since she was 23 and is a leading figure in the party, might become a government minister.

On her weblog Dijksma explains that her proposal is a logical consequence of the Dutch system of subsidizing students. Society finances their studies with government scholarships, hence it is only normal that they pursue a professional career or repay. “If someone chooses not to work [ED.: This cow should ask my wife the stay-at-home mom whether she "works"], then there should be a substantial repayment,” she said.

***
Since the sixties, socialist feminists like Dijksma and Snoey have refused to accept that women also contribute to the wellbeing of society by investing in children. The time, energy, money, talent, and indeed education invested in the upbringing of children produces greater benefits for society as a whole than the pursuit of individual wealth and satisfaction. Apparently Dijksma’s ideal world is one where educated people spend their lives partying and spending, while the future of society is left to depend on a generation of children raised by poor and uneducated mothers. If all children come from disadvantaged families, the state can step in to “take care” of them.

If Dijksma and Snoey were honest in their materialistic logic they ought at least to deduct a sum equivalent to what the government spends on the average disadvantaged child throughout its education (and possibly its entire life) from the amount that they are demanding back from educated mothers. Perhaps when all is added up they might decide that it would make more sense to penalise women who choose not to have children in order to pursue their careers.

Indeed, as
a vital resource of any civilisation is its future generation, refusing to have children is a “destruction of capital.” [ED.: Exactly right.] What use is a market when there is no-one to participate in it? Society should allow educated mothers to raise their own children, rather than punish them.

My Comments:
Another argument for separation of school and state.

What this woman is advocating - and more especially her reasons for doing so - is pure evil. Socialist b**ch views women as commodities. The next time you hear some leftist talk about providing women with more "choice", laugh in the liar's face.

I dunno, it looks to me like she just wants housewives to have to pay off their student loans.

Doesn't quite make sense to me; you should first demand payment from those who are profitting financially from the degree.

But I don't think this is a student loan, Paul. I think it is a universally available government "benefit".

What this cow is advocating is punishing those women who don't use the "benefit" in the way the social engineers would like them to use it.

Instead of forcing Dutch women to go to work to do a job many others could do just as well, how about paying them to stay home to do a more important job that only they can do: raise the next generation of Dutch women!

I find this disgusting, especially since in my field (molecular biology) I get it all the time. "You are smart. Why don't you work full-time? Why don't you go to medical school? It is such a waste that you have 4 kids!" Ugghhhh!

She should be punished for wanting to take away a woman's right to choose her own path in life.

I think whatever percentage of her education is dinged, she should get paid back the exact same percentage of her children's taxes over her lifetime.
