"In the richest country in the history of the world, a secure and dignified retirement should be available to every American, not just the extremely wealthy."
I’m in my 50s with no savings. It isn’t lifestyle or marketing driven though. I just have had very few years where we had any extra. Also three teenagers and the price of food is killing me, cost of cars too. It’s just surviving that’s gutting me.
It’s still a bad argument. You should be able to have kids and not starve. The fact that people choose no kids and still starve shows how fucked things are. We are all fighting the same fight, though our positions may be different.
A society in which the poor can’t afford 3 kids and retirement savings is a failed society. I’m not one of those birth rates people but you absolutely should be able to afford to have the replacement rate number of children
