Thanks for reading. Why not offer perks & privileges to those doing caregiving, whether of children or elderly parents or disabled/ill partners/siblings, regardless of romantic status? All of us will need to caregive or be cared for at some point.
Mixed feelings about this provocative yet reasonable article. My inner poly libertarian says gov't should have nothing to do with sexual relationships at any level. My inner tradlife pronatalist says marriage is worth gov't validation as part of long-term population policy.https://twitter.com/OMGchronicles/status/1227964551552913408 …

Good question, but the discussion would need to be too nuanced & complex for tweets!

There should be more benefits for raising children (like a child allowance) and those benefits should be higher for married couples

Governments mucking with marriage is exactly what created the anti-natalist anti-family situation in the West. Governments want to increase their power, and destroying the family is a key component of that.

I'd argue government's de-population agendas such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agenda_21 along with governments telling people how many kids to have outweighs any validation. Also a reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia_Guidestones …

Can that not be achieved rather by facilitating children's education and healthcare thereby reducing the potential burden on parents, whether married or not.

The government should have nothing to do with reproduction either

We can socially promote social goods in ways other than the coercive state. Libertarian analysis doesn't mean we can't have broad social norms and preferences. Just means we should be skeptical of using monopoly power to implement them.

Also, my inner historian is creeped out by any notion of "population policy" which definitely attributes a normative idea of managing people in broad categorical groups, and that should really spike your inner poly libertarian. ;)
