Seems to follow the overall pattern of the wealthy/poor squeezing everything possible out of the middle class. Society is no longer built for the common, ambitious working man, only various shades of freeloader.

makes sense
having kids as a middle class person fucks you up financially
as a poor person you're rock bottom so having kids is better than nothing
as a rich person you can have as many as you want and not even feel a financial burden

You're welcome. What's pretty clear in the chart is that high-wage earners (by wage-standards) have a kind of "energy-budget" that gets redirected away from sex and towards work. Story of Western civilization right there. If you imagine "work" as an entity, it'd be stealing people's sex. All work does this, since technically, every second spent working is a second not spent just lazing about and fucking (or raising a family, if we don't want to be so narrow), but normally, the two would be in some equilibrium and people would be doing some optimal amount of work to provide for their families/children/spouses. They have come into disequilibrium, though, which is why demographics are collapsing: industrial society wants to eat its cake and keep it too, by having people work 20 hours and day and keep mortgage-bonds liquid by increasing house-prices by 7% p.a. or however much it is in perpetuity, but also wants to maintain and endless stream of new workers. It is rugging itself, though: even on purely utilitarian grounds, doing this is no more clever than not doing maintenance in a factory to save on costs: one does save on costs and extracts more profit in the short-term, but only until the machines start malfunctioning. Pretty shit to have to live through, but what are you gonna do. If you want to go even more esoteric, it's not even industrial society/capitalism that's the cause of this; it's the effect: people created capitalism, it's not a natural phenomenon, and they created it because they were sexually repressed neurotics who needed a distraction from "the evil, yucky sex" - a profound form of self-alienation from which the alienation from work, though real, is historically downstream.

This is household income, and tradie guys are almost always $50k+ themselves since they work long weeks. Any household under $40k is almost always partially on welfare/services, drawing from the teat in some form.

>> No.57657141

>>57657106
No it's because 0-income niggers have nothing to steal in divorce, don't think/care about child support and don't get married. Middle class whiteoids aren't getting married because of the 50%+ chance of her getting bored after 7 years and stealing your kid and trooning him out.

There's a whole host of social problems in Africa, but they're not ignoring their children everywhere, that's more of a modern phenomenon in places like South Africa. In other, more rural places, they live a subsistence lifestyle which maybe isn't rich, but also not "abject poverty".

The state also does this siphoning, true enough, hand-in-hand with the private economy. Systems like these tend to grow uncontrollably large over time, to the point that they're rugging their own underlying support-base (in this case the typical, well-behaved, productive worker). That women often initiate divorce... yeah, that's a bit shit too, though this is also part of this whole complex of sexual repression, plus they themselves get parasitized by the whole "relationship-industry" ("get a divorce", Instagram envy creation, Tinder, luxury retail, etc.), which survives by keeping women in a constant state of dissatisfaction, analogous to the system under which men are, which keeps them in a constant state of also dissatisfaction, but also financial dependence... so the same as with women, really.

Middle class people don't want kids because that would mean sacrificing some luxuries. Poor people are poor either way so there's not much to sacrifice, and rich people don't have to choose between kids and an affluent lifestyle because they can afford both.

Kids are for poor people and stock market welfare queens. Real men can find their own purpose in life instead of pretending that there is virtue in giving into baser instincts.
