This is literally the platform of right-populism. "Wasn't it good in the 50s when a single income for a guy with an associates was enough to support a family in a life of comfort, and a summer job could pay for university? That's why women shouldn't be in the workforce and black people shouldn't have rights."
You forgot the part where they also give these people an easy target for the miseries in their lives.
"Do you hate your life? Do you wish you were living in a mansion, eating grapes lowered into your mouth by a servant, instead of working 50 hours a week? Well, have we got a deal for you! Just try Blaming A Minority, and all your problems will disappear! But wait, act now, and we'll throw in a second minority, free! Just pay shipping and handling, and vote for our fascist candidate"
shit isn't it
No, because it also doubles the labor supply which in turn depresses wages. Not to the point where it isn't a net gain at the household level, but it's not remotely double when it happens en masse (as it did when 2 earner households became the norm rather than the exception).
