[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Republican thought leaders continue to push downward mobility on their base, encouraging them to work dead-end fast food and now mythical gas station jobs which provide unlimited overtime and great benefits. [twitter]https://x.com/charlesmurray/status/1941931632556143063[/twitter][/quote] And live in a mythical place where $150k homes are abundant, AND have “enough money to set aside for a baby”. Which includes daycare, because both parents are working at the convenience store in this scenario. Many of these thought leaders are older boomers still mentally stuck in a time when $75k/year was a solid middle class HHI. When we were looking to buy our first house a few years ago (“starter houses” are $350k for 3 br/1 ba/1500 SF in our un-megalopolis of less than 100,000 people), our financial advisor sneered at our unrealistic ambitions and told us HE bought his starter house for $120k. In 1999.[/quote]
