It sounds like where you live $10-$15 an hour is more than reasonable to live, own a house, have kids, etc. Assuming you're not sitting on a mountain of debt of course. However that is not the case in every part of the country. Where I live, $10 an hour won't get you out of your parents basement, and could barely afford you a hoopty car. Which means if you do only make $10 an hour, you obviously aren't gonna have enough to bank or whatever, you should not even be attempting to buy a nice car, and should keep your "weapon holstered" if you know what I mean.

The point they are trying to make is people don't live within their means (and that includes getting married and having kids), they want more than they can afford and do it anyway despite the fact they don't make enough money to support it.

And I'm still waiting on an answer to how the UAW and teacher unions are in the same class.
