Uncle Sam wants your hand in marriage

If you're 18 to 30 years old and single, Uncle Sam wants to talk to you about marriage. Yep, the Federal Government is now in the wedding business.

Soon, the feds will throw $5 million into a media campaign to explain the benefits of marriage and tips on how to have a successful marriage. Here is what I want to know, are we going to fund the divorces too?


In an age when we are spending BILLIONS to bailout banks, 5 million may not seem like a lot of taxpayers money, but is this really the best use? The government has no place in my private life even if lack of marriages will somehow destroy society as we know it.

Can you come up with a worthwhile way for the government to spend 5 million dollars?
