Again, I’m not against “marriage,” AN. I’m against ONE PERSON being able to LEGALLY marry MORE than one person at a time.
You’re twisting around what I’m saying here to suit yourself.
It has nothing to do with “poor people” or any bias thereof.
The polygamists I’m speaking of here are in this arrangement for one reason only … to perpetuate themselves … essentially … procreation. “Love,” “romance,” and “marriage” really have nothing to do with it. The “wives” are selected specifically for the purposes of procreation … the younger, the better because they will have more years to “procreate.”
Below is a very apt description of polygamy:

These families get away with their lifestyles because they endeavor to be self-sufficient and not a burden on the state. In addition, if an elected official in their jurisdiction just so happens to need 600 feet of new fence or one painted (or both) around their homes, barn, etc, these families can instantly produce 4-6 strapping big strong boys, aged 14 – 22, to work on the fence until it’s done.
No money ever changes hands :=D
You need to get out on the road more, AN. You might learn something.
