Marshall and Melissa discuss how declining marriage rates are driving many of the country’s biggest economic problems, why there is a growing marriage-gap between college-educated and non-college-educated Americans, the origins of the marriage decline, who shouldn't get married, and whether governmental support can alleviate the disadvantages of growing up in a single-parent household.
