The Wolf, I think I detect a not of sarcasm (-a whole symphony?).

But you raise an important point.

There’s no question that post-WWII Jewry required this shift to “yeshivos where masses (of married men with families) learn every day.”

The fact that many (or most) of their wives can’t stay home is a shift in our society that has the potential to cause real harm.

Many people (including here in the CR) say that even when the men are not in Kollel and earn a decent wage, societal pressure, the high cost of tuition and summer camps, and in general the sky-rocketing cost of living in frum America, make two incomes a necessity.

Can we get women back home to raise our precious newest generation?

Do we have to?

Do we want to?
