I think the solution to all these issues is clear. The State must forcibly take all children, at birth, away from their parents and raise them in special institutions with highly trained professionals. 

This way, each parent can work full time, free of the "burden" of caring for children, and all the care givers will be paid professional wages. 

Only then will complete equality in everything that can be measured (like individual incomes) be possible. And, most important, by taking the care of children out of the home and into the marketplace, we will instantly see a huge jump in our gross domestic product and, even better, the government will collect vastly more money in taxes.

What could be better?
