children"*

No, this isn't a historical item about the Great Depression. It's Italy,
today, and that's what an engineering firm allegedly reported to the small
business association.
An engineering firm in northern Italy has sparked controversy after making
almost half its workforce redundant – and selecting only women.
A union official quoted the company as having reported to the small
businesses association: "We are firing the women so they can stay at home
and look after the children. In any case, what they bring in is a second
income."
No one at the company, Ma-Vib, which is based in Inzago near Milan, could be
reached for comment.
With Italy's prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi, on trial for paying an
underage prostitute, there is a continuing and lively debate over the status
of Italian women, which some international surveys suggest is abnormally low
in comparison with the rest of Europe.
