So it seems cohabiting couples can expect a windfall if one of them dies and leaves the other with children as the Supreme Court has ruled in favour of such an outcome which means yet more claims on the broken and bankrupt welfare state Ponzi system as it will quality the survivor with an array of benefits.
Marriage is a contract, if people choose to live together without availing themselves of it why should they then reap all the benefits accruing to the married? If they want to leave the door half open so they can exit from the relationship without any financial responsibilities that marriage entails why should they then get to switch their status when it conveniences them?
Anyway this is academic in as much as the Capitalist Party would phase out welfare and there would be no tax funded goodies and sweeties to be had when relationships go off the rails and the people separate or indeed in the unfortunate case of one of the party deceasing and as far as we can see marriage is a contract and in the absence of any marriage there can be no contractual agreements to be honoured re financial compensation in the abovementioned cases.
