Entry: The State, Marriage, and Contract Law Link: http://www.takimag.com/sniperstower/article/a_thought_on_the_state_and_marriage#27601 Post contents: As someone who is the father of an illegitimate child, and far from promiscuous, if can assure you that the state has very little of the interests of my son in mind. The state has done very well in ensuring that a good chunk of my money goes to my son's mother while also doing everything in its power to make sure he has no positive male influence in his life. I have had to fight for every minute that I get to spend with him. Luckily for the both of us I am able to take considerable amounts of vacation time to spend with him and his mother is more than willing to be rid of him for weeks at a time. I am the far more responsible parent but the courts tend to treat all men like criminals because their main aim is to break families up not keep them together. I can say definitively that all parties would be much better off if the state got out of marriage. I would suggest that you also stop trying to link liberal and libertarian. There is nothing liberal about wanting to turn marriage back to the churchs where it belongs while there is everything liberal about wanting the opposite. Sent at: 2009 01 09
