Go back and reread your own posts before accusing me of anything. Your disdain of married people is most obvious and I don't whine about being done wrong by single people.

One more time, a married couple will pay more in combined taxes if they have similar incomes and are in the higher tax brackets than if they were single. This applies to a lot of people in this country and is hardly a rare event. What part of that are you having trouble with?

Is scoffing and disdain as in your other posts really necessary to the discussion?
