The author has not established that "it is good for you."

By most metrics I have seen, it is. You're more prosperous, your children are more successful and you live longer.

I'd say that marriage is good for you.

It does kind of read like a high school essay.

And no, it doesn't make it wrong. But it contains a lot more opinions than data.
