How exactly will two earner households become one earner households without one of the earners making double the money?
The theory here is that if everyone is twice as productive, everything costs half as much in relation to what people earn.
Of course that doesn't work unless there's heavy competition in the market for everything.
Yes that doesn't happen when monopolies dominate the economy as they do in the USA. Then the monopolies just take higher margins.
Lol... By the magic of being poor
By becoming even poorer.
