Marriage. Or Not.

Salon is running an interesting article/interview with the authors of a book called "Unmarried to Each Other." The couple, who have been living with and committed to each other for several years, are proponents of "cohabitation" and founders of the Alternatives to Marriage Project. Personally, I found the article interesting, and though I'm fairly "retro" in my outlook on "family," I'm also fond of doing what suits an individual, or in this case, a pair of individuals. My only question is this: if you're going to spend your life "cohabitating" with someone, why not get married and save yourself all the trouble they mention in this article?

Why not get married and just cohabitat? Marriage taxes. (Though this may become a little bit better with the economic stimulus plan on the horizon)
