If im taking care of a partner, i should be able to deduct expenses up to my total income like corporations can. halving the tax is still not enough to move the needle for people to get married due to better taxes.

This results in those in higher income tax brackets receiving far more money which is deeply inequitable.

Having single men pay for other men's children, incentivising single motherhood seems inequitable, no?
