"I just don't want to work"

Hi all... I'm new to the board and I am curious.
I am in my mid twenties, unmarried, no children. I work in an extremely competitive field with many other women my age. Many of us are making six figures and the job is very stressful. We all have a great work ethic, but sometimes when the stress gets really bad, I'll often hear the girls (never the guys) saying things like "Arrgghh... I'm so sick of work. I just want to marry a rich man, have kids, stay home and NOT WORK."....... I was raised by two working parents (two very loving, caring hardworking parents). My mother was very successful in her career, and I feel that when I get married, I will (like my mom) continue to work and raise children at the same time (my mom was definitely "super mom" ---she did it all and was great!)...... My main question: many of the women in my work stay in the position for about 5-7 years and then leave.....the funny thing is...

SAH doesnt mean you'll hear/see every first. And how does you seeing/hearing it benefit them anyway???

I didn't write the law, I was only explaining why it was written in the first place. Why exactly is property tax relief for seniors NOT subsidization, but assessing homes based on their purchase price is, BTW?
California is a strange bird. I don't think that it's common in other areas to have one's property value increase 400% in 10 years. I don't see how it would be reasonable to expect someone who purchased their home for $24,000 in the 60s to be able to afford property taxes (on a fixed income, most likely) on something valued at over $800k. If someone buys the house for $800k, then they already know what their property taxes will be. If they can't afford them, maybe they shouldn't buy an $800k house.
