I welcome @ikamalhaasan ’s idea of recognising housework as a salaried profession, w/the state govt paying a monthly wage to homemakers. This will recognise & monetise the services of women homemakers in society, enhance their power& autonomy & create near-universal basic income.

@ShashiTharoor @ikamalhaasan Venezuela pays its homemakers 80% of the minimum wage (approximately $180 per month) since 2006. Though it is a modest sum, it has been helping women in the country.

@ShashiTharoor @ikamalhaasan 2 HYPOCRITES- Shashi Tharoor & Kamal Haasan who have HISTORY of Disrespecting & Illtreating women are trying to whitewash their images with this idea. First Start with RESPECTING Homemakers in ur home Mr Tharoor. Sunanda Pushkar would have turned in her grave zillion times by now

@ShashiTharoor @ikamalhaasan How is this not patriarchy? How is he not associating homemaking with women? Flowery socialism.

@ShashiTharoor @ikamalhaasan Wow what a highly sexist tweet!! You think ONLY women are homemakers? Todat men and women equally share all responsibilities!! Home and outside work alike ! Don’t treat us women like handicaps or like children 🙏🏻😓

@ShashiTharoor @ikamalhaasan Marriage is give and take mutual relationship Putting a price tag on the work done in your own home is not just demeaning but also commercial Lastly, please advise if homemakers are paid salary, will they pay for their own holiday soujourns, salon & impulsive shopping?

@ShashiTharoor @ikamalhaasan Please also clarify whether homemakers will hv equal monetary contirbution towards rent, utility, school fees, holidays, grocery shopping, splurging on husbands, dinner outings? Officially coining the phrase #SmashTheSimps for anyone who comes up with absurd privileges for women

@ShashiTharoor @ikamalhaasan The care a woman give at home is not accounted in monetary policy at all. High time giving what's due. Money will also promote men to share the load. @YaleMadhura

@ShashiTharoor @ikamalhaasan Totally agree with this. A minimum wage, with year on year increment, leaves & PF should be included. Incentive can be that it should be excluded from tax bracket of the employer. I think this reform & similar reforms with respect to every labour force will be great for future.

@ShashiTharoor @ikamalhaasan And @ShashiTharoor and @ikamalhaasan will finance this program for all, from their self and ancestral properties and their copious income . To start with they have started giving salary with PF and pension benefits to the homemaker(s) in their home(s).
