I agree, though of course I would take out the word married before couples. Anyway, can't help but think things may be better in Western Europe or other countries. I know we'd pay mroe taxes, but to get 8 weeks of vacation, rather than 4 and the other benefits you GET from your taxes, seems nice to me. I could certainly survive with less money, but the day-in, day-out drudgery is killing my spirit! Anyway, that's for another thread...
