I thought this was familiar but the OP's article is satire based on a real article that talked about the substitution effect between whores and wives. I remember this article created quite the ruckus and got the media hamster spinning off its wheel. If it was published today I imagine everyone would be fired and the article censored immediately.

Practically speaking if you're a high earning male there's no point at all in getting married. It's just way too much liability and risk involved in the U.S. If you just look at it from a straight economics point of view it does make more sense to just use whores. Of course this article doesn't take into consideration game and getting it for free from willing girls who you have no obligations with.
