How would abolishing marriage (from the legal form) give you less choice? You could still choose to commit your life to one person and still get some certificate or have a ceremony.

I think you and Jeff are hung up on the term "marriage". When people commit to each other for life the term and the paper mean nothing.

What is the other cost associated with marriage? Again, I am assuming that all of the divorce cases cost tax payers money... no?
