The United States should have never strayed away from the standard of the one income household being sufficient

But year after year post 1971 that reality was crushed. It’s as if the govt and corporations together hate families, then criticizes the declining birth rate, broken families and mental health crisis.

Every family in the U.S. should have the choice of one income household being more than enough. We’ve settled for so much less, and it’s fucked up. Two incomes is hardly enough.
