Fine ill break it down into smaller pieces for you kid.
The idea that American families used to thrive on one adult income is propaganda aimed at the uninformed and easily swayed. It makes the 1950s look like a simpler, fairer time, but that’s misleading. That ideal mostly applied to white, middle-class families. Black and Hispanic families faced systemic racism like redlining and being denied GI Bill benefits, and women were expected to stay home, often earning far less if they worked at all. Poverty, social constraints, and inequality for most were ignored. Nostalgia for that era is a story sold to flatter the smaller minded.
What the actual fuck does that have to do with the post
