“Have several children, a driveway full of cars and a few moving violations?”
Yep, now THAT’s a scenario that the typical American family faces on a regular basis. You know, having enough money to pay for cars for every one of your four under 20 kids, besides each of you having your own car.
Of course, to make sure that we understand that this is an issue that the American Middle Class will relate to, they mention "One Long Island father I spoke to this week had three young men in the mix, expensive cars, an accident on the household ledger and a moving violation, too. "
Because after all, what American family with three male children DOESN’T own “Expensive cars” for each child and parent, and have a moving violation or two, amirite?
I’m sorry, but the amount of privilege that oozes from that article is absolutely breathtaking. It should be enshrined next to the articles about families of three who are whining about how difficult their lives are trying to scrape by on a measly $250,000 a year salary.
I mean, insurance companies are out of control, but the people who are suffering aren’t families who are wealthy enough to afford expensive cars for each of their three or four kids.
