Title: Haredim in Israel are legally not allowed to work until aged 32!
Post by: wonga66 on September 04, 2010, 06:45:31 PM

An interesting article
http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Columnists/Article.aspx?id=186789
about the imebecilic Israeli law that prohibits Haredim who did not serve in Zahal from entering the workforce until aged 32, and the imminent untenability of the status quo to the economy of the state of Israel!

An Israeli Haredi who has diligently studied in yeshiva is a goodly tad more intelligent than the average chlloni Israeli. Haredim make conscientious government ministers, bank staff, postal clerks, dole-office managers, paramedics, computer operators, diamond polishers, builders, bus drivers, soldiers etc.

"22 + 2" sounds like a great solution.
