    It does seem a bit odd that some protest taxes because they are forced to help somebody else financially yet on the same note, feel worthless because they don't have somebody they need to help financially (a wife who stays at home). And blame the government for both situations. Maybe it is because with taxes they feel like the slave in the relationship while in the marriage situation they get to rule over the slave even if they have to pay them and provide them with free room and board in exchange. It is about power.

    Maybe they should make welfare recipients write personal thank you notes to individual tax payers. The providers might feel better about themselves.

    Not a bad idea...I'd settle for an OTPHJ from some of the better looking ones once a month.

    So you subscribe to the radical feminist notion that marriage equates to slavery.

    Do you hold any kind of liberty or conservative minded views at all?

    You cannot honestly see the difference between providing for and taking care of your family and children as opposed to being taxed to do the same for a complete and utter stranger's?

    Seriously?

    Sounds pretty important to me.

    8 But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel.

    This begs the question of whether work done in the home for the mutual comfort and sustenance of the family is without value. Add up what it would cost to hire laundry, child care, food prep, etc, and stop saying a stay at home spouse is not contributing to the home because she doesn’t have a paycheck.

    If we want to boil it down to nothing but market metrics, I guess the market has spoken.

    Fewer and fewer people are getting married and having children.

    The exception to the MM/MF unit that dominates human societies is being eliminated. This will result in more vicious levels of within group competition, less paternal investment in young, and increasing levels of sexual dimorphism.

    Zippy fails to understand the role ideological indoctrination has played in this development. I suppose that is convenient for they who see themselves on, "the right side of history." Ideological indoctrination is in one direction, only, towards polygyny.

    The thought that this development is organic, and that polygyny is ascending because people choose it ignores, at the least, the vast amount of propaganda and social incentives that are provided to encourage it. This is particularly true in our society when a single media complex produces a single narrative. So much for choices.

    When my wife stays home with the kids, she is a wreck and complains about cleaning up the same messes over and over.

    When I stay home with the kids, I either take care of personal stuff around the house or take it easy. I always look forward to the calm. Then 30 minutes before my wife gets home, I rally the kids and we spend 30 minutes cleaning up and cooking dinner, and then I tell my wife how hectic my day was and that I am grateful for the hard work she does on the days that she stays home and I go to the office.

    I found the same to be true as well.

    I think its a cultural thing. Mexico had to pass several laws in the past two decades because they treat their wifes like property.

    I have friends who have stayed home. Others who have always worked. What I would say is that the stay at homes don’t have as much, but they always have the option of doing something different. The ones who work generally have to stay working because it’s really expensive to live the way they do. I know when I quit working I will need fewer clothes, I won’t have to spend as much on my hair, and I would be able to cook more from scratch. I’m not at retirement age, but I know life would be easier for husband because I will be available to do a lot of the things he handles now.

    Don't be an idiot.
    It's about choosing to care for someone you care about and who cares about you instead of being forced to provide for people you don't know.

    Anybody ever notice Zip's technique of trying to put everyone here on the defensive? He asks the concise questions; we furiously type out a long answer.

    And I think people do a good job of refuting him, and even putting him on the defensive.

    Both liberty people and the enemy, Zip, both expend a lot of energy. Sometimes you get exhausted, but there is one difference.

    Zip goes home at the end of his posting with a paycheck. You don't.

    I think you over-looked part of that verse, just sayin'.


    Being married is a beautiful thing, if both parties realize it is a union that should stand united against all worldly the odds.
    “The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found. The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner

    The other factor brought up in the OP story is also real and relevant. As women’s jobs have become more lucrative, men’s value has gone down. Marriages that in the past would have stayed together are easily severed when the man is no longer the breadwinner. There is no use for them.

    Of course. At the welfare end of the spectrum, government incentivizes, even demands that there be no father. No (or much less) assistance if the baby’s daddy is in the picture. Get rid of daddy, get more money and housing. Hard to say if there is more or less sex in those situations.

    It's profitable to have children from different fathers, many times over.

    All cases of support award the most for the first child from one man, each subsequent child only nets the breeder a mere percentage. ie; If child #1 is good for $500.00 per month in 'support' from father #1 child #2 would only net another $100-150 per month. But if the breeder chooses another sire wisely she'll be entitled to another child #1 award after gestation...

    Government funded breeding programs don't favor one sire over 5-6, ie; each additional child in the household equates to X-$ increase in benefits regardless who sires it so long as the sire lives elsewhere.

    So as to "more sex" ..........Mom is getting strange just as soon as she's able, Dad on the other hand is most likely kicked down the road for more lucrative entertainment.

    Ah, didn’t think of that. Government not only encourages single moms, they also encourage them not to be monogamous.

    Any sort of post separation monetary arrangements should have to be put in the marriage contract in the first place. The lawyers are getting rich off people getting their petty revenge against their exes.

    The 4 child retirement plan that pays the bills for 18+ years all for having a good time.

    Children can't get rid of a bad mother, they only get one..... Same with fathers.

    What society can, and should do, is make fatherhood equally advantageous.

    Common sense says no benefits for anybody, equal time with each parent.
