Why not abolish marriage certificates for everyone?
#3
RE: Why not abolish marriage certificates for everyone?
One thing I find humorously striking about Libertarians is their reductionist ideas.

You don't hear "let's minimize the differences between X and Y so we may consider removing something"

Instead you get grand standing statements like "Remove X" or "Abolish Y"

In the end run, it feels like you have a solution looking for a problem.

And the complex tax code seems a more pressing issue than the legal institution of marriage (which has substantial rules devoted to joining and splitting of shared property and resources).
Slave to the Patriarchy no more
