Come on man ... Simple economics. If a person is paid to do nothing, he will have less incentive to work! Economics 101.
Not what you said. You said this below:
Lots of 2-income families. When one can be paid to sit at home and take care of the chores and upkeep, that family is not is as big of a hurry to become a two-worker family as soon.
You clearly suggested that second income was strictly for fun/play money...That's bull sh*t and you know it.
Once again, you take away one income from a two income working family in today's America, and that family is screwed.
