This article notes that “right-wing governments, including the US and Hungary, are increasingly blaming falling fertility rates on a rejection of parenthood”, as if today’s young adults just don’t want children.
But the author suggests that actually people do want children, and one of the main reasons they’re having fewer children is because they can’t afford many children.
Thoughts?
Nope. Only true if the new job offers benefit over the previous jobs.
Sorry to tell you this. But for many in modern society that is simply not the case. The growth in income or benefit at best covers the increase in cost of living.
With the huge increases in housing costs alone. Long term employment. Stable or steady replacement. Often fails to pay the increased dost of surviving as low income workers age.
For many low income families jobs last as long as the company success followed by random layoffs to support company shareholders. Followed by inflation only replacement work.
This is in no way a career just survival.
