His were all I read, as I personally think it's blindingly fucking obvious that many housewives are using cheap labor to raise their kids and clean their houses so they can go do Pilates and such. In that sense, it's underdiscussed, and I'd frankly prefer that it stay that way. It means we're printing money. What is discussable is what is being done with that money, of course. I'd posit that it is better put to other uses than freeing up Mommy and Daddy for more masturbatory bullshit, but I'm a coelecanth in that way. Did I spell that right? T. Rex, then.

In other news, Instapundit boosts Megan McArdle with her post on illegal immigrants being a substitute for women doing housework as underwritten about. Dearie, nothing is underdiscussed anymore on the Internet. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
