The Y chromosome tax policy
Should women pay lower taxes than men and will it increase their familial bargaining power?

Yes, this is a really, truly sick proposal. These pseudo-scientists do not even appear to realise that women have MORE freedom, not less, as to whether they want to do paid work or not. Basically, women can CHOOSE whether to work, while men MUST work (hence the lower elasticity for men). Again, a really sick, stupidly sexist proposal. Comparing it to Third Reich practices does not seem that much off base.
