The family is the central core unit of our society and marriage obviously helps the family structure. This is the idea behind the new government
public service announcement that promotes the benefit of getting married before age 30. Of course telling everyone they have to get married would be
Orwellian, but explaining the benefits of marriage is like explaining the benefits of wearing a seat belt.
Marriage is good for the family and people who marry younger have children sooner and women who have children before the age of 30 are less likely to
have complications with their pregnancy. This is a win win scenario for the government. Society would be more stable and the stability would greatly
help in the production of the next generation of young Americans.
If you're interested, check out the new website that was created for this campaign. It's
TwoOfUs.org which offers advice on relationships, dating, and tips for having a successful marriage.
This web site has the steps towards marriage all laid out in nice little tabs. Dating, Exclusive, Engaged, Married, Parents. Hee, hee. Quite obvious
they are pushing towards people having children.
You can find the note of who's backing the site at the bottom of the page. That is the
U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services.
Expect to start seeing ads for this site on MySpace and Facebook soon.
