So they got married for the sake of health insurance and now they'll get divorced because of the changes?
It was incentive for divorce for a couple whose only reason for being married was health insurance. How unimpressive and unsurprising.
But don't mind me, please continue your panics about the institution of marriage being destroyed.

I guess the people who get divorced to save a few bucks (assuming the story is true) didn't value the institution of marriage very much in the first place.
Originally posted by PsychoPawnSo the government isn't punishing people for getting married because the insurance used to benefit people who were married. Nice reasoning. Wow you can rationalize anything.

Just another way to destroy traditional American institutions (as if marriage needed to be undercut more).

I know several married couples who divorce and remarry depending on their tax situation, and they've been doing this since the days of Ronald Reagan (gasp!!), I know it's fun to paint President Obama as the great Satan, but please try to include at least a tiny bit of logic in your posts. 😞

Originally posted by sasquatch672Folks, let's not distort things here. The only thing Melissa Harris-Perry was trying to get accross was that children are citizens of this country and members of their neighborhood communities, just like we all are. Please try to restrain your leaps of illogic.

Originally posted by bill718Wow, you see that the government at times comes up with policies that punish people financially for getting married and have no problem with it.
