TO REDUCE INCOME INEQUALITY ... LETS START WITH FAMILIES. Maternity leave, child care, universal pre-K, flex time should be available to every parent. If we want to strike at the roots of inequality in America, we’ve got to start at its source, in the family, at the very beginning of children’s lives. We have to make it possible for mothers — two-thirds of whom are now breadwinners or co-breadwinners for their families — to stay in the work force without the sort of family-related job interruptions that can greatly limit their lifetime earnings and even push some families into bankruptcy. We need to make it possible for all parents to give their kids the kind of head start that is increasingly becoming an exclusive birthright of the well-off. Seems like something our electids could find common ground on. yes?
