@nudfkm I don’t think they want to get paid. I think they want their effort to be recognized and appreciated. I recently came across something called Pigou’s paradox and it tells about how if a man marries his housekeeper the GDP of the country falls as the economic value is erased.
@nudfkm Same way no wife would be opposed to a little well done, thank you and some support in household work from their husband when he can. It all boils down to consideration. In all marry someone you Love and RESPECT. All of this shouldn’t be hard
@nudfkm It’s thankless in a sense but everyone likes to be appreciated. I don’t think any man would be opposed to a little appreciation for carrying out his duties from his wife and maybe a little support where she can
@nudfkm This is all from an economic standpoint though. Whether or not they should want or demand payment is a different story. I’m not in support of people being paid to take care of their children. However, women’s efforts should be recognized and appreciated
@nudfkm Or/and the opportunity cost. Now if a woman also works a 9 to 5 and also carries out her household duties alone I haven’t seen any research or figures but i think that woman is contributing more “economic value” to the family a lot of times more than we realize
@Ifeonyx@SheunAdeola What competition exists currently that their being here removes? Just thinking if they later over price their goods why can’t we move back to the options that are currently available? Does their being here stop us from importing from other companies or countries?
This is the main issue. Distrust, Corruption, moral decadence and the Nigerian need to be better than your neighbor is negatively impacting our ability to progress and that’s why we are poor. Distrust is a poor man’s game
@SheunAdeola@PriestRitchie The “profit” the Chinese are making from direct to consumer sales seems to be way less than that of the middlemen given the huge price difference. This also helps increase the disposable income of the average consumer. Their money now has more purchasing power
