With divorce laws the way they are, is anyone surprised? The laws are generally designed to screw people.
People? More specifically, you mean men, right?
People?! You mean MEN. For men, marriage is like walking into a casino and putting at least 50% of everything you make and own, and everything you will EVER make and own, and betting it all on red/black on the roulette wheel. Actually, the odds probably aren't even as good as 50/50. Have a couple of kids before things go south, and the odds are even worse.
