Almost everyone is just one job loss away from being unstable. If you have kids then it's 10x more likely. What you're suggesting is just impractical.
Even the professional classes have instability issues. E.g. just look at how stable a high flying banking executive was in 2008. Or tech workers in the 2000s.
We should make it cheaper to have kids, rather than expecting people to wait until they're millionaires.
- JustSomeNobody 6y agoI edited my comment, I think it may clear up what I mean.
