[quote=Anonymous]I have to laugh at the "you kids get off my lawn" people who are completely out of touch with life, thinking it's 1956.  People aren't passing up children in their early 20s because they want avocado toast and a nicer car, - gee look at all the 23 year olds in luxury flats driving high-end cars - most are still in school or just finishing school, or heading to grad school so they can make a decent living, or trying to break into their new careers and basically living hand to mouth as it is. And your solution to that is stay home and have babies, so there's even less money coming in and more mouths to feed on one income.  And yeah, people used to be able to do this because one salary, out of school, was enough to get started, and then some.  These days it's not enough to get started, no matter how often the right wing nutters bang on about "If you'd only stop buying avocados you could afford a mortgage!"  My god you people are dumb. Read something other than Harlequin romance novels, the data's there for the taking.[/quote]
