To Wed or Not to Wed

Marriage is a broken system. Hence, the 50% divorce rate.

Marriage is obsolete, like VCR. They should simply have the whole damn system replaced with something much more advanced and better quality.

Marriage is an economic conspiracy: they make you think you get great tax breaks but the small print says that instead, you end up consuming three times as much because being married and having children means more dollars spent on EVERYTHING.

But...it's still nice to come home to someone at night, and if marriage as a system, is a way to guarantee this "coming home to someone at night"--however unstable, risky and short-lived it may be--then, for that reason only, marriage is still not that bad...
