Experience and observation has shown me that the young families I know and observe, need two incomes.
NEEDING two incomes is a bit of a stretch. Replace "want" with "need" and I'll agree with you 100%. My parents got by fine on one income, raising a whole herd of us, and I plan to raise my family on one income. I don't see us ever needing a second income. If we do, I'll get a second job.

It's very difficult for someone to raise a family based on the average Americans' wage.
The average American's wage is higher than any other nation's on the planet, so you must think this is true for every other family on the planet.

What you call complaining, others call bringing to the forefront. I don't remember saying anything about a problem, or something needing fixing.
OK, so you're saying it's not a problem, just that they brought it up, and it was good to bring it to the forefront. Well, I'm bringing to the forefront another non-issue, and that is that I need new shoes. It's good that I brought that up.

It appears you would like to argue about something, try someone else.
Yes, I would like to argue about something, and you brought up some points I disagreed with. But fair enough, I'll go find someone else if I must. Didn't mean any offense, I just like to challenge people on issues when I can.
