Marriage itself is a chattel trade. It’s delulu to think you can enter into the institution without normalising patriarchy.
Or y'know, some people just want a break on taxes
Not disagreeing but, um, I did need healthcare. So.
I must confess I don’t see how the two things could be linked.
Some healthcare in America, you can only add onto the plan married spouses. Sometimes even Common Law isn't enough to get a spouse on your plan. So some people need to actually have the piece of paper that says Marriage Certificate in order for their spouse to get healthcare.
I'm assuming there's a shithole country somewhere where you need expensive private insurance to have healthcare and perhaps it also covers spoUSes?
