If indeed there is a widely acknowledged disconnect between shadchanim and singles, then the system is truly broken.

If all involved are truly convinced that the shadchan-powered system is the only way, then nothing will improve. The shadchanim are the sole address for the marriage process, and they alone will determine the rules of the game. Translation: Pay up or stay single.

I do not believe that this sytem is the only legitimate one.
