In the span of a couple of days, Vance McAllister has destroyed the marriage of one of his staffers.

It's worth pointing out that McAllister's supporters have included the Robertson Family, whose views on marriage became well-known last year.

1. The sage levels are verging on self-parody here.

2. How? Plenty of people get married in capitalist economies.

1. That's not what 'sage' means, please stop using it in that context.

2. The increase in market prerogatives, lowering of wages, and overall strain these place on families have nothing to do with the decline in marriage?

1. What does "sage" mean, then?

2. Let me answer your question with a question: if President David [REDACTED], D-Wherever, were to ride into office with a Democratic supermajority in both houses and pass sweeping liberal reforms that still stayed within a capitalist system (higher wages, universal health care, the WPA, etc., but no worker control of enterprises and a union support level a tad below your own), what effect do you think that would have on marriage?
