Women should be reminded, frequently, that each one of them needs to be on guard against her sex’s tendency to overspend on homes.
Criticism makes people behave better. Look at white men. We’re just about the only people you are allowed to criticize as a group these days, and now, under this stream of constant criticism, we’re usually on our best behavior.
The alternative (and more popular) theory is that criticism depletes crucial self-esteem vitamins, causing the formerly criticized groups to live down to their stereotypes. Thus, no critiques are allowed today of the propensities of women, blacks, homosexuals, Latinos, and most other organized pressure groups. With so few targets left, TV advertising humor is now directed relentlessly at putting down the clueless white guys who run everything.
Who's to blame? The Fed, Democrats, Republicans, Congress, the President? No! It's women.
