I've lost you again on the first half. Tax break=/= tax cut. I dunno.

What I said is pretty simple, and it's true.  I will explain it in a different way though.  Two people of the same income, if one is married they pay a different amount of taxes. It's true, look it up.  IRS.gov

Second half, it's not that I didn't understand the words. I just don't see that logic as bieng correct when applied to the situation.

Government charges a different tax bill depending on the religious situation (married or single).

Marriage, while enveloped in religious ceremony, is a life function. It represents dedication to a partner in which the two of you will help re-populate the human race. Some religions see treat this a polygamy but most base a virtue of homogamy with it.

Kids are not part of the situation I am talking about, this would be a married couple with out kids.  Polygamy, polyandry, and whatever other types of marriages other parts of the world recognize are not taxed differently.  This would add to my reasoning.  Why are Muslims, Hindus, FLDS and other religions discriminated against through income taxes.

It's just ends all. I just don't see it. A scheme meant for .... I don't knoe. I'm not necisarrily saying "you're wrong" but, I'm just saying, it doesn't add up to me, personally.

If it's really that hard to understand, then you should learn about it and ask questions before expressing an opinion about it.  You don't need to know every aspect but you should learn more about it.

I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
