fair enough.
you seem to be arguing that the system is x and depends on y and i am saying it should be a and depend on b.
you make a strong point re alimony. the law seems to extend the concept of co-production into more spaces than i was considering.
i guess this is why pre-nups have come into existence.
i get why the system operates as it does where there is sacrifice or substantial co-production. but i wonder why otherwise.
but it probably makes my theory too complex to bother thinking about if what currently obtains is so thoroughly embedded.
by the way, i thought we were no longer in the age of spousal ironing!
