The marriage rate in Great Britain has collapsed to its lowest point since its government began keeping statistics in 1862. Now, even marriage is being called into question, says Stephen Flurry. I have to ask: How much longer till Great Britain's collapse is complete?

whats happened to your usual BLACK/MUSLIM/LATIO bashing posts..why you picking on the 'mother country' this evening?
Originally posted by spurs73I don't know what the divorce rates are in the "f-ing US OF A," but that might be an excellent subject for a research paper. However, I predict that they are very high because the marriage rates are also very high since the population is younger than Great Britain's. After all, marriage is a young person's game.

Originally posted by der schwarze RitterThe rates are the same in both countries. I wonder what your point is.

Originally posted by Dace AceNo, the previous poster was relating 3 concepts to the thread topic.
Somebody seems to be having a hard time staying on the debate topic.
DSR used divorce rates to imply the collapse of british society. The poster pointed out that since divorce rates in the US are basically the same, yet since DSR does not propose US society is crumbling, then his argument is flawed.
On Topic enough?

This is a sad stat though.
"Of the marriages that stay together, based on a recent column in the Sunday Times, an incredible 59 percent of married women said they would leave their husbands tomorrow if they could be assured of economic stability"

Maybe I'm being nieve but I really don't think money makes the world go round. I think how these women were asked the question is important.
Afterall how much is enough money?
-Enough to feed and cloth your childern- well at the very least the state would cover that.
-Enough to live the life you are accustomed to? If you're so unhappy that you'd devorce then that hasn't made you happy yet.
I think these wives answered that way for different reasons- perhaps because the real reason that they might want a devorce, but not try for one is private or because of the way the question was worded.
Originally posted by yo its meI once read an article about "how much is enough", over a thousand britians were polled about what would make them feel like they had enough (material goods, housing etc...) the average was $3.2 million (US).

Are people really that materialistic?? I find it hard to beleive. My brother earns good money in London with computer programming but he's happiest living in a caravan in the outback of Australia. Maybe money is just the easiest thing to aim for?
Originally posted by yo its meMoney is simply one of the easiest ways to get the other things that you want. Your brother probably wouldn't be able to travel to Australia often if he didn't have a well paying job.
