In these days of inequality making not much of a foundation to stand on.
How are people to find a stable ground? "No man is a island!"

America is living 64% paycheck to paycheck. In that are the issues of being poor but are issues viewed of well off people. Poor and poor fit in but should be as a way to pull each other up! https://nbcmontana.com/news/nation-world/64-of-americans-now-living-paycheck-to-paycheck-thanks-to-inflation-report-says-lendingclub
Issues of a lack of income is a lack of education thus not knowing how to relate to jealousy. Well get educated on it!

Or let it go it's not worth jealousy! Learn from it ask other poly types look it up. you learn you like walkout of the fire because you are tired of it!
~~~~~Buying tickets to events, throwing parties, or purchasing fetish wear these aren't absolute requirements for participation in polyamorist and kink communities, but the studies note they can be associated costs. And jobs for the lower classes don’t just pay poorly; they also often lack benefits, paid leave, and stable schedules. So people in those jobs have much less time or energy to devote to dates, to community events, and to nurturing multiple relationships. The lifestyle is also helped along by a certain amount of urban density and good public transit infrastructure — something, again, much more available to high earners in big cities. (It’s also worth noting that racial injustice and economic injustice overlap to a very large degree.)" https://theweek.com/articles/538413/what-polyamorycan-teach-about-economics-family-life
There is no need to be uppity in Polyamory. Life is what you make it together!
~~~~~Yes, too many men are simply economically unattractive.
How sad that it's come to this.
As inequality increases and technology increasingly takes advantage of cheap labor, love becomes part of a calculation.
Long-term plans can't be made. Marriage is but a concept from another time and place.
Yet there's another way in which equality is being achieved. Slowly, women are earning more.
Which leads Lichter to muse:
Marriage is still based on love, but it also is fundamentally an economic transaction. Many young men today have little to bring to the marriage bargain, especially as young women's educational levels on average now exceed their male suitors.
Please don't worry, boys. One day soon, technology will find a way to make you all completely disposable.

~~~~~Study Blames “Economically Unattractive Men” For Falling Marriage Rates.
Is Economic Unattractiveness a Viable Reason to Turn Down a Mate?
Experts note that women themselves are now earning more and producing more economically, and they may come to expect their spouses to provide as much as they can. Finances are the leading reason why divorces occur, so it makes sense that people are looking for someone financially stable. Women have historically governed the household, but having to govern the household and be a primary breadwinner may be too taxing.
At the same time, there’s something to be said for the increasing “pickiness” of people in general. More people today are single than before: over half of young individuals aren’t in a relationship. Some have accused online dating of having a hand in this: with a “grass is always greener” point of view, it’s more difficult to commit.
Others point out that financial difficulties can make it difficult for people to maintain relationships at all, as they are more focused on their career and their education. Unfortunately, this contributes to an aging workforce and a shrinking population, which is something that many advanced countries are struggling with today.
The bottom line: marriage is fading away, and people are increasingly staying single. At least part of this appears to be because of vanishing jobs and lowered male wages, which is making it less attractive for women to get married and have children. A better economy, which can support stay-at-home parents of either gender, is likely needed to alleviate this.

Noting the minimum wage hopefully go up but the poverty jobs will get replaced by automation so still the need will be needed to run to a career college for the job skills needed. And so that shows a need for community. If one is economically unattractive, get two! So in these changing times get together because the future won't stop coming unless people stop using technology going back to flip phones!
And so all of life as it is or will be points to more Polyamory and openness! If it helps take it in your life! We all should be adults not a time to be a child! A time for openness it's ok!
