At least she's being honest about it—how is that being a bitch? She's not pretending it's anything other than what it is. The vast majority of marriages in the United States are for economical purposes of some kind or another (they get tax breaks, she can get on his health insurance, stuff like that). This is no different, when you really think about it.
