Yes, because the "minimum living standard" has risen due to the extra income. If everyone's income doubled (adjusted for inflation), that then so would what society considers a minimum living. This sentiment also seems to gloss over the contribution of stay at home partners. Just because they don't get paid, doesn't mean they aren't producing anything. Thus, the jump in resources from moving to double income is not the full amount of the second income. |
