“, my wife and I have busted our hump to do the best we can through these hard times.”
Note the poster appears to be a single mom. A one-way ticket to poverty, normatively.
My own mother was a single mom with seven kids in the late 60s. Dad sent child support every month, but that wasn't enough to keep us above the poverty level. She worked to keep us above poverty, and she could, because the country hadn't yet been totally undone by Socialism.
This gal is suffering from a deeply entrenched social paradigm that has been many decades in the making, and which she put her own shoulder to the wheel to forward.
A friend of mine is fond of saying that "life is about choices and consequences... The better your choices, the better your consequences."
Liberal minded people have torn at the original fabric of our society till they created the unintended but now common result of the single mom family. Who would have ever thought that there might be consequences to their "free love" advocacy?
