The Rabbis daughters: you can agree with joseph. but i have an issue with the words you chose. no bochurim learn in kollel. yungerman learn in kollel. bochurim learn in beis medrash. see, a bochur gets married, and stops being a bochur (just like a bachelor). once the man is married, he is halachally obligated to get a job! this is unarguable! this is G-d’s words! now there are people that are willing to not partake of this mitzvah, and choose to sit and learn, and that is commendable. we should support them, but when we do, we should only be supporting the best and brightest, otherwise the system fails, as i have explained before. as you said that they are doing the right thing sitting in kollel is based on nonsense and propaganda, because halachically they are not doing the correct thing, they are batlunim (the term the gemora uses for kollel yungerleit). they are being mevatel the mitzvah of sheishes yomim ta’avod!.
