CAPITALISM pays such low wages that two have to go out to work, and thence the problem of expense of the children being cared for!
Wages should be sufficient for the mother to have a choice, and places for children would be provided for all free.
In Cuba, though poor because of Capitalist USA blockade, health care and funerals are free, bus fares are nominal and so are telephones.
Rents are low, education is free. The state serves the people under Socialism, and not business first. It is a co-operation, as the people own the businesses and the profits go to all.
The people control society. Having enough money and economic security is the primary aim and necessity in a Socialist society.
Profit for the few and the owners is the primary aim in a Capitalist society and the poverty of the many in order to keep wages down and people subject to the market and no economic freedom or choice.
With poverty, where is the choice? Freedom is a myth!
Under Capitalism, unemployment is necessary, as it keeps down wages and is a consequence of market forces and the anarchy of production.
Capitalism wastes and duplicates resources and plunders the world for cheap raw material, cuts down the forests, pollutes the rivers and air and leaves it up to the tax payee to pay the bills.
Under Capitalism, you pay for two-and-a-half hours and get only one.
