She said no: marriages in China plummet to record low

Inb4 China stops reporting this. Just like they did with youth unemployment

Does Wisconsin require showing up for two or more “appointments” during those 120 days?
-
We need fewer people.

Any system is bad when scalping becomes a thing.

It's wrong, but I don't see it as a big deal either. If someone is escaping an abusive marriage, and can escape, being legally married carries no weight. And that's the worst case scenario.
Ex and I split amicably (mostly), went our separate ways. We were married for a couple of years afterwards because we were too lazy to pull the trigger.
Are there situations where waiting 4-months hurts someone?

There are some rumours about this. A lot of women and their families expect the husband to have a car, house, well paying job and paying a five figure (in USD) bridal price, while preferably be below 30 years. With the economy as it is, few men qualify. It's also expected from a lot of men to give his complete wage to the wife. Government goes along with that, and flavors the women in a divorce. Turns out a lot of guys just say f this, and don't get married anymore.

Without mentioning "China" in your body, I feel like this comment could be pasted under low romance rates happening across a dozen countries.

Other than the fact that an abuser can just hold all your property hostage for 4 months and leave you with either A) no legal claim to your belongings or B) no choice but to return to your abuser?

Why should be not be as easy to exit a contract as it is to enter one?
-
China is economically left lol?

Being legally married carries weight.
I have no idea how you think it doesn't.
Your amblicable split is not an example of how the process of a divorce with an abusive partner. It's the furtherest it can get.
Absolutely dumbfounded here.
If this wasn't trolling or sarcasm, you are not a clearly not wise person. I'm sorry if I'm the first to let you know.

Yea from what I can tell, it's the same but worse
First before you even have the wait period you must go to court in order to file for the waiting period to begin. Additionally you have to pay a fee to even begin the wait process
After the 120 days is up, you have a period of time to gather docs and obtain a court date for the final hearing. Failing to prepare during this period or engage the court for the final hearing will likely restart the entire process including waiting another 120 days and having to file and pay the fee with the Circuit Court
I honestly can't tell from the article what "appointment" means but it sure seems synonymous with us having to go to court multiple times to initiate the process and conclude it
If I replace court appearances with appointment to align with the article. Then in WI you have a bare minimum of two appointments. If you have kids or need petitions for support to go through with the motion. You can have up to four appointments. Not acknowledging you may be forced to complete parenting courses before the final hearing is allowed to occur

I mean, they're definitely not a fan of the free market?
-
Or the democracy protests, pre-covid
-
All that and you can't provide a single example of weight? That's literally all I asked for.

How does being married or not change that? Say I beat my wife and she runs away. She can get a police escort to get some of her things. I've been on the escorted end of that scenario. (Obviously they won't wait for a moving service.)
no legal claim to your belongings
So you're saying the law considers everything in a home the property of the person remaining, if they're married? You should meet some people going through a divorce. It ain't like that.
Of course it should be easy to divorce. My first two words: "It's wrong..."

Experts warn this decline could accelerate China’s demographic and economic challenges.
I'll say it again. The labor market is a market.
Lower supply ==> higher price.
In the context of the labor market: Fewer workers ==> higher wages. That is good for the workers.
-
It would be good to back that up with actual arguments.
-
Old people is where that gets messy. But it's absolutely true

Old people is where that gets messy
... as long as you assume that retirement has to be paid for by the worker's taxes.
Rich taxes would solve the problem well enough, i think.
-
So so. It still takes a worker out of the market for their care. Which from above is established to be at a premium.
