I suppose we're in a bit of a bind here, because there aren't really any studies on polygamy we can cite on parenting and so on. The reasons that I think polygamy would be bad for society are the same ones I put in my post: that it would lead to the further commercialisation of marriage, that it would lead to discrimination against women and that it is not as good for children to be raised in polygamous marriages.

Senator TNF makes a good point that if you don't think the government should be legislating morals then you should, logically support polygamy, which I agree with. However I do think government should be legislating some morals at least. For example the government should force the rich to give some of their money to the poor, through the government, whether they want to or not. As such I have no problem with the government making a decision to discourage polygamy, because it leads to the greater good.

You don't want regions to be allowed to recognize group marriage/civil unions?

Switching my vote to AYE, if it means that the Regions will be able to enact more progressive legislation than the Feds on this matter.

One of these things is not like the other...

Seriously, how often does TNF vote with the right?

It's more that we have been having a lot of bills that have a left/right split in the vote for no discernible reason.

I voted with the right here to give Regions the opportunity to legalize group marriage, because I don't see that happening anytime soon at the federal level, with how that vote went here.
