When Women Become the Safety Net Nobody Asked For
What if I told you that America's richest secret isn't hidden in Wall Street vaults or Silicon Valley boardrooms, but in the unpaid labor happening in millions of homes right now? While other wealthy nations built childcare centers and universal healthcare after World War II, America made a different choice: it dismantled its wartime childcare system and sent women home. The result? A country that doesn't lack a safety net-it just expects women to be that net. They shoulder nearly two hours more unpaid work daily than men, earn substantially less, and when they buckle under the weight, society whispers that they're simply not trying hard enough. This isn't about individual failure. It's about a system designed to extract everything from women while convincing them the exhaustion is their own fault.
