re: #55 Vicious Babushka

Women were always in the workplace. During WW2 they just moved into jobs that were previously held exclusively by men.

Women staying home before WW2 was a luxury enjoyed only by the upper class. The 1950’s were actually a historical anomaly.

Given the increase of per-worker productivity we really should be thinking about how to handle this ‘too many people, not enough jobs’ thing and I’d love for every family of even the most modest of means to be able to afford one person to not work - or both to work if they choose.
