Yeah, the entire premise requires that women entering the workforce didn't cause any new jobs to come into existence.
Childcare alone is a huge industry.
Both working parents often means two vehicles, that's an increase in manufacturing.
It also ignores that women were already part of the workforce but their options were restricted.
Two household incomes exist because it's the only way to survive the past 40 years of wage stagflation. We have an increase in multi-generational households because two incomes is no longer enough.
