I think Martha Friendly raised this as well in her testimony. What child care advocates have always said is that child care can only be one part of a broader support system for women's equality, for the welfare of children, and for the benefit of families.
It's interesting because you can make the argument for child care that it's good for women's equality. You can make it from the perspective of the rights of the child; children have the right to quality education and care from birth. You can also make the economic argument that it's really good for the economy, and in that respect it benefits everybody.
