Boomers and their stay-at-home mothers

We still are.  In fact, we're much more productive now than then, but seem to need two 50-hour a week workers to satisfy the needs of the owner class.  Since the benefits stopped flowing down a long time ago, the willingness to continue in this vein will stop at some point.  That point may be soon; I hope so.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
