this, but entirely sincerely, because it's awesome when you are certain that everyone around you is there because of real bonds of affection and not a terror of being judged Outgroup

This is a monstrous conclusion. Locking people who don't like each other anymore into a relationship will, at best, create a Potemkin facade of a working marriage, the outer appearance without the inner blessings. It is subjugation and misery.

Replying to @palecur @eigenrobot
The only reason for any family to stick together is "I love you and I want you in my life" *any* force beyond that is abhorrent. If someone doesn't want me around, I don't want them around because Society's made it inconvenient for them to leave. That's awful.

Marriage is a pretty bad, rough proxy for child-guardianship; granting that one's to have government at all, and that government has a legitimate interest in promoting child-rearing at all, it always made sense to me to assign resources to child-caretakers, and not 'the married'.

substantial disagree there, but we can take comfort in the reality that the policy options each of us alternately espouses and abhors from one another are equally unlikely to be implemented.
