Maybe it would be cheaper to buy a home in a bad school area and use the money saved on the cheaper house to send the kids to private school?!?

And while the COST of items such as clothes may have gone down, it should have gone down much more, because the reality is that people ARE spending much more than they should - thirty years ago, young mothers' babies wore hand-me-downs. Now, they spend $60 per outfit. It's a big waste of money.

Housing & Health insurance, cars, childcare, and taxes are what have gone up over the course of a generation, and Ms. Warren says they are fixed, but are they? MUST we own home, must we get sick, MUST we have cars, and MUST we have childcare? Why can't we rent, be healthier, one own el cheapo car, and look after our own children by working shift or part-time shifts (and this could be done by cutting down on other expenses). Not ideal, but better than going bankrupt.

George W Bush and dimwit US Labor Secretary Elaine Chao have rarely met their jobs creation target in 8 years, proof that tax cuts do not work. The labor pool available in India and China are way too large. In the US, it takes the creation of 100K-130K new jobs created per month just to absorb new graduates into the workforce. Job offshored? It's not coming back and it's not being replaced. As long as Republicans haven't raised taxes on CEOs, they don't care. Bills go onto Elaine Chao's desk.
