Living with Mom & Dad

A boingboing item (https://boingboing.net/2016/05/25/more-single-adults-living-with.html) reports that:

More single adults living with parents than on their own for first time since 1880s

Specifically, they cite a Pew Research study to the effect that there are more single adults living with mom & dad than there are living out on their own.

Most of their explanations so far have pegged these supporters as hopelessly naive, unrealistic and idealistic.

At the recently concluded Centesimus annus conference at the Vatican, leaders from countries around the world were invited to discuss the morality, or lack thereof, in the global economy, which Pope Francis has rightfully labelled as "the globalization of indifference".

Invitations to this conference were selective, made by the Pope himself. Having been schooled on the writings of Augustine and Thomas Aquinas, I found resonance with Francis's address before the conference.

Help me out here. Need links for How America Lost its Job.

You have been told that America lost its jobs because of Unions, and Regulation made it too expensive to manufacture in America. Well, this is not actually why or how it went down. You see there are many pieces to this puzzle, and I will try to show them to you and help you connect the dots.
