Center for Marriage Policy: The Costs of Marriage-Absence

cfmpAdmin — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 02:36:53 +0000

The consequences of marriage-absence to the Nation include:

Poverty and across-the-board growth in runaway social entitlement and other spending attempting to artificially reduce the economic consequences of marriage-absence.
A shrinking middle class and widening income gap due to transmogrification of two-income families to structurally-weak single-income families.
Growing tax burdens and fewer taxpayers, driving class-warfare between rich and poor.
Large numbers of single-income, unmarried individuals cannot afford health insurance, resulting in nationalization of the medical care industry.
High taxes on businesses and subsequent loss of jobs and factories to foreign soil.
Destabilization of the dollar due to high rates of home loan foreclosures, business bankruptcy and consumer loan defaults by economically-weak unmarried households.
An overall moral decline affecting our nation at every level.
A lack of consistency in legal jurisprudence.
A false perception that spending massive sums for in-school parenting, discipline, and remedial education can somehow prepare large numbers of children to do well in school.
Migration of large numbers of individuals into underground informal economies of crime and violence stimulated by and adjunct to the welfare-state apparatus.
The highest incarceration rates in the industrialized world, at great public expense and loss of productivity.

The consequences of marriage-absence to individuals include:

Growing numbers of struggling unmarried mothers requiring costly government husbandry and increasing numbers of unmarried men unable to support two households.
A willingness to destroy unborn children and large numbers of out-of-wedlock pregnancies
A proliferation of serious and often incurable sexually-transmitted diseases.
An increase of child abuse, sexualizing of children, and child neglect.
Participation in the underground economies of crime, drugs, gambling, prostitution, perversion, and pornography.
Children’s psychological problems, poor school performance, involvement in gangs, the drug culture, teen pregnancy, incarceration, and failure to enter the workforce and advance to higher income levels.
Insufficient assets for retirement.
Emotional distress and insecurity for adults and children without intact families.
