What do men work for? The National Times of Australia explains.
As the Nobel prize-winning economist George Akerlof put it: ”Men settle down when they get married: if they fail to get married they fail to settle down.”
It is also true that when they lose their marriages, that incentive disappears. How many married men work two or three jobs to support their children but, after losing their families through divorce, cut back on work to reduce their child support?
Name-calling hardly seems a fair response to the sad plight of these marginal single men, locked out of the incentive system that keeps other men’s noses to the grindstone.
Women’s Liberation has also liberated men. I don’t see this working out well.
