On the contrary, I think we already have reached this state.
In the fifties, men, with just a normal job, could earn enough to support a family - not well off but they managed.
My Dad bought a house in 1952 with a deposit and mortgage for £1,500 just a little terraced.
House prices and other prices went up very slowly and he progressed to a three bed semi in 1963 for £3,000.
Then between 1963 and 1971 house prices quadrupled - £12,000.
So, the people coming along then (me), had to have two earners in the family or not be able to buy a house. It is not a recent happening.
Around 1990 mortgage interest doubled to 15% - work out your mortgage if that were the rate now.
I often wonder about the economics of mechanisation and workmen.
Companies seem to have the money for any machine or vehicle they want but hate paying wages.
