billi65 There is never a need to get married. You get married to someone to show your devotion and love and because you both want to. Not because your pregnant. Nowadays there seems to be no stigma about being a single parent and even less value put on marriage vows.

billi65 I think I would destroy currency! We should all go back to bartering for services and goods. That way everyone would have to work to recieve rather than making money from misfortunes and mistakes of others.
