Civilizational collapse: Less than 15% of 30-year-olds are married homeowners

[initforme]

Taxation is more the problem than we realize. It is altering civilization , that does not equate to collapse.

We just got tax cuts so lets asdume that will quickly reverse the trend. Laugh. Snicket.

What facts? Women decided they didn't want to raise kids any more, they they pawned them off on gov day care and fullfilled themselves with jobs. People were no longer satisfied at the kitchen table, so they loaded up on even more corn sweetener and ran up med bills. People were no longer satisfied with basic television and a phone, so they paid for tv and got the latest and greatest gadgets. And on and on.

Nope....
Wrong again.
Our exports were prized all over the world.

However,
Tighter margins created cheaper products as our dollar devalued and our innovation decreased. Cheap, knockoff products in our markets (produced by slave labor) forced many businesses to either move overseas or go our of business. Those few that remained lowered wages , and continued lowering wages until our lifestyles are no longer what they were.....

American lifestyles now are on par with the rest of the world. A job no longer pays what for what you produce but what they can force you to accept. Skill level and education requirements are not relevant to pay scale.

100k in school loan debt after graduating but the job only pays 45k/yr? (Typical) And your peers in school wish they got as good of a job as you did. (Normal)

Our economy and society are broken in more ways than one.

Two income households are necessary just to barely survive....not to grow with children.

Hats off John. Well said. Spot on.

The communist wet dream of owning NOTHING is coming to fruition in the US.

A bizarre thing to say, given this is the direct result of unregulated capitalism.

Kind of embarrassing, my man.

Nope....
The Democrats currently are selling a message of outrage with their rhetoric.
The Republicans are selling a message of hope of a better life with their rhetoric.

There is no hope for Democrats with their current strategy.

People all want an ideallic life. The Democrats are not selling that to anyone....because their message is of how "unfair" things are.

Taxation has existed as long as civilization has….

yes, the stagnant wages and bubbling housing prices are 100% the result of unregulated capitalism.

But it got worse under Biden.

That, unregulated immigration, transsexuals access to children,
And other issues like this led to a dramatic loss in the voting booth.

And STILL will not help getting Democrats elected.

And after the firings and etc....it seems more like Democrats were responsible for unregulated capitalism moreso than Republicans. (Although both are at fault for this)

People bought knockoffs and cheapies. They brought it on themselves. There are good products that provide more value, but consumers largely decline them.

Two incomes is the feminist folly sold by liberal academics who dislike family and children.

It got worse under every president for the last 45 years.

I just dont think your cultism will allow you to have a normal discussion about this.

Moving on...

The decline was caused by inferior management by Diploma Dumbos.

Who wouldn't?
Why would I spend $20 on a drill guide when a $2 one will do? (Especially with how little I'd use one)

And two incomes went from lifestyle choice to survival necessity.

Civilizational collapse: Less than 15% of 30-year-olds are married homeowners | Blaze Media

A viral chart revealed that the number has been declining rapidly since the ’90s.

www.theblaze.com

In 1990 it was 45%.

The communist wet dream of owning NOTHING is coming to fruition in the US.

To the Federal Reserve's credit, they are artificially elevating interest rates to continue this trend.

Well done comrades.

We should all learn to speak Chinese.

All done to Americans intentionally by the democrats and their WEF masters.

Once you realize democrats are traitors working to intentionally collapse America for their WEF masters, suddenly everything they support and do will make sense.

Democrats = traitors

The joke is "denial is not a river in Mexico "

If you don't get that joke, then you probably think Biden was competent and calling the shots.

2 incomes is a necessity to survive, to barely hang on. Thats called reality. How do you expect people to have kids when they are barely able to make ends meet?

I mean, this obviously isn’t true.

people with a high paying job clearly make enough to support a family, without their spouse “having” to get a job

Not everyone wants to be a stay at home parent. Not everyone finds that fulfilling.

plus, we throw around the word “need” pretty casually.

When my parents were kids, middle class families lived much more modestly than families today.

Most Households only had one car. One TV. Even having more than one phone was considered slightly excessive.

Groceries and cooking were done on a pretty strict budget. Fast food was an occasional treat.

None of this was considered “poor” or “struggling”. It was all perfectly normal middle class lifestyle.

Families today could live on one income if they lived within their means

I bought my 1st home in late 1977, I was 22 and married.

I bought my first home in 1987, I was 22 also and was shacking up with a gal that I married in 1989.
We fixed up the house a LOT, or rather - I fixed it up. We made good money doing it and uses that as a down payment on a larger house in 1998.

They can if the one income is equal to two. One 60 thousand dollar salary isnt going to do it today. Those days are never, ever coming back Young people are working hard and prefer not to scrape by in order to have kids. So a growing number are holding off or not having them at all and then some wonder why
or worse feel they just have to have kids for the sake of the nation or society or whatever other lame reasoning.

Oh I get the joke....

Seen an X post about a Mexican national that is a TicTok influencer and she was all upset she was getting deported. She was totally in denial and doing all her little 90lb frame could do to resist arrest against a team of 4 (6'3" 250lb) ICE agents.

She was first taken to a hospital to treat her scrapes then put in a detention center.
