That thinking would change the % of families without income, but not the % of total workers without income. Still it is an interesting dynamic when comparing the two generations. And you would think that it means that fewer households are actually in peril. However, I wonder how many households have two incomes just to survive...to get the bills paid. Losing one of those incomes would hurt many families, putting them on or below the poverty line. For instance, I only have a part-time job. Losing my husbands income would cause a lot of distress.
