Why We Work

                After reading this selection I can say that i strongly agree with writer Arlie Hochschild on the subject of working woman in America and the need for men or other significant partner should share the responsibilities of housework as well as the upbringing of the children. From my experience through family and friends I have witness relationships and marriages fail, especially in the black family because of the burden of picking up the males slack and responsiblity.   Too many woman in our society go through the hardship of being financial provider, housekeeper, and full time parent with no break in between. Also agree with Hochschild on the issue of the government not providing enough for working families and new and improved policies that would benefit the working families. American has proven to be a place thats more selfish than helpful to its people. "The rich get richer and the poor gets poorer". The legitimate needy and unemployed deserve the help from those who are well off. This world will never work and we will never really be able to co exist without each other. ~REV.
