1. You started our post by calling Dave a “moron” then you proceeded to type a long post addressing him. That is a screed.

2. Your answer is completely unrelated to Dave Ramsey. He espouses that it makes a very big difference that both spouses work together on the budget, come to agreement on all purchase decisions, etc.

Perhaps you used this article as an opportunity to address a personal concern that you have, but by starting out calling Dave a “moron” you deflected from any general concern you may have about society.

We aren't in the building trades, no money exchanges or business memoranda were involved, and that leaves "diatribe", which mischaracterizes my post -- I'll assume, involuntarily due to incapacity.

As far as not understanding or relating to what Ramsey said, please go back and notice that I quoted him when he said it didn't matter, and then I laid down the corrective information of which apparently Ramsey is unaware, and of which the merchants of our world, with their huge advertising budgets, are acutely aware.

That is not a "a bitter, sharply abusive denunciation, attack, or criticism", which is what a "diatribe" is. Unless you thought that was a denunciation. For an example of what I call a "denunciation", keyword search my recent posts for "Obama" or "Obozo".
