Lisa Loeb criticized the cabinet’s approach to women’s care

Lisa Loeb argued that the cabinet was not providing women with better care and was consequently making the country sicker and poorer. She called on mental-health services (GGZ) to place folding chairs in waiting rooms, amid reports of rising mental-health complaints and increasing numbers of women experiencing breakdowns.

Statistics from CBS and TNO indicated that almost a quarter of female employees were mentally tired because of their work, compared with 18% of male employees. Loeb said that no one had investigated what was causing the increase.
