Ultra-Orthodox feminism for one thousand four hundred shekels a month
Who said the ultra-Orthodox do not work?
At least when it comes to the feminist and bizarre protest that is being voiced now, because of the abolition of daycare subsidies, they are working on all of us not bad: ultra-Orthodox women will not stop working because of the abolition of daycare subsidies.
Do not buy the spin: if anyone has been discriminated against, it is secularism

The change in the criteria for subsidizing day care for non-working parents has succeeded in eliciting astonishing feminist chanting from the ultra-Orthodox sector. "If the criteria change," said Yair Shrek of News 12, director of Kollel and Maon, who is also the grandson of Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, "the mothers will stop working."
The outburst of concern for the empowerment of ultra-Orthodox women is particularly touching, coming from the mouths of boys and girls in the sector for whom "a voice in a pubic woman", "honor a king's daughter inside", and if you dress immodestly, sit in front of the bus or walk on a sidewalk for men. in the best case scenario.
The use of these feminist motifs, in their war for the fourteen hundred shekels they receive from the state for the home, has one purpose: to press the sensitive points of the secularists, for whom women go to work have value in self-fulfillment, and whoever robs them of their harm as human beings.
So let's put it here: Haredi women are not equal to haredi men.
They are inferior to them in the basis of religious perception, although there will be those who will immediately find in the Torah thousands of solid quotations about the exaltation of the woman by a miracle in the mouths of all and the transformation of Queen Elizabeth by her husband.
Their departure for work, which is very welcome, comes from an economic need and no other.
And this need is the real motive for the world war that is now going on around changing the criteria and not, as they want to make secularists think, that it is a refined devotion to the Torah.

Including students in front of students
To date, the criteria for admission to the supervised dormitories have required the wife to work 24 hours a week and the husband to study or work for the same period of time. The ultra-Orthodox also included learning in the kollel in the studies section.
An absurd situation has arisen in which a student studying at the university finances his studies out of his own pocket, while the one studying at the kollel, the state finances him with NIS 2,000 and gives him a few more choppers along the way, such as the priority test for admission to dormitories. This test is based on the monthly income of the parents, divided by the number of persons in the household.
If both parents work, they will be pushed back, while anxious parents, where only the wife works and the student's monthly yeshiva funding is not included in the income section, they will enter the daycare before both working parents.
This is called a negative incentive. An ultra-Orthodox man has to be stupid to go out to work and lose the 1,400 shekels that the state gives him for free for the child and the automatic priority in the daycare center.
The ultra-Orthodox women, on the other hand, took advantage of the opportunity given to them to work, because this option is not voluntary - but depends on the good will of the rabbis - and integrated impressively into the labor market.
According to data from the Employment Service from 2019, before the corona, 78% of all ultra-Orthodox women (compared with about 51% of ultra-Orthodox men) went to work, a large part of whom earn the average wage for, which stands at about 11,000 shekels. 5% of all working ultra-Orthodox women are in high-tech, compared with 6.5% of secular women.
The change in the criteria for admission to the dormitory, which was supposed to enter on November 1 and has since been postponed for two weeks, requires the woman to work 24 hours a week and the man to work 24 hours, study or undergo training that will put him in the job market in the future. He can, for example, learn to be a butcher, a scribe or a kosher supervisor, any course that has a certificate at the end and is supervised.
The ultra-Orthodox insist that the kollel studies should be included under the section "studies for the rabbinate."
It does not grasp that in a rough comparison of course, regardless of the content, one can compare rabbinical studies to studies for the psychometric test.
Anyone can access them and there is no official certification at the end.

Memories of the days of Lapid in the Treasury: More ultra-Orthodox went to work
This is not the first time that the criteria for admission to dormitories have changed. In 2012, when Iir Lapid was Minister of Finance, a decision was made according to which in families where the spouse studies at the kollel, the total subsidy for dormitories for students decreased, and with it the priority in the entrance exams.
According to the ultra-Orthodox, the result was supposed to be a mass return of ultra-Orthodox women home. In practice, the employment service data showed that not only did the employment rates of ultra-Orthodox women not fall, but more ultra-Orthodox men went out to work.
And one more thing. Ultra-Orthodox women who earn NIS 11,000 and support the household will not give up their income because of an additional expense of NIS 1,500. It is true that it is burdensome, but many secular parents, some of whom are students who have to pay NIS 3,000 per childcare, find another job if necessary and do not think of resentment, like
Mrs. Yehudit Halpern
, who was interviewed by Yair Shrek and was really angry: "What will I do in two shifts? ? ".
Yes, Mrs. Halpern.
Quite a few secularists who can not be dormitory of WIZO and Naamat, working two or three jobs. By the way, not only are. Even just secular people who serve in the army for three years, to earn a living and the state does not give them free gifts.
Haredi men are feminists. They do not care about women that their only themselves and money they may lose because of the move of the Minister of Finance, after I have practiced for many years their parliamentary representatives made sure they had too good.
what words of Prime overall determination on the yeshiva, whoever tasted Torah does not leave it, you can also say the market The job: Anyone who has tasted financial independence and personal growth will not give it up so quickly.
