assist married couples trying to care for their two children plus four parents.


That’s the thing most Americans don’t realize - the children care for their parents in their old age - there are no old folks homes. So it is quite a burden on a married couple to care for their children and the surviving parents while trying to earn some sort of a living.

That's why the birth rate stays low: the wife has to work in order to help support everyone, and they cannot afford kids.
