Porn is one of many causes, but not a clinching cause. It is all economy.
1. In 1970's highschool graduated were able to raise families on a single salary, could afford a home, a couple of cars.
2. The above situation does not exist anymore. Have you seen graduates from places like UC Irvine, working at Enterprise car rental?
3. Yes, there are jobs for students graduated from top schools like HYP, Stanford, MIT. For others, it is either a tech job or a job like that.
4. Wherever there are jobs, there the cost of living, raising a family is a darn expensive. Imagine Silicon valley for instance: if you are just a software engineer, you can't afford raising a family here, unless you and your spouse slave away at work and in commutes. Then add day care costs, mortgages, etc. It is a stressful situation.
5. For many in the middle income bracket, the future is bleak: you can't guarantee that your kids gonna have same economic opportunity as you have.
