Outstanding article. Long, but worth the read. Basically it sums up the stats that indicate that one of the things really negatively affecting the middle class and the poor economically is the decrease in marriage rates and the increase in single parenthood.
In sum: the rich are more likely to get married and stay married and this actually helps them maintain their socioeconomic status.
What say you, tribe?
Something in there for the "pro-family" conservatives, sure. But perhaps also an argument for same-sex marriage as well?
One thing is sure, two good parents are better than one good parent. I can't imagine raising my kids alone.
