And why aren't they married?

My guess would be that one or both of them is legally married to somebody else.

Probably they need time to think it over and decide if it's right for them.

Why is that any of the government's business?

Afraid of commitment, I guess. LOL

They're too enlightened to do something so mundane as marry

Marriage has ruined a lot of perfectly good relationships.

So they don't have to pay the marriage penalty. They can each file as single with the one making the higher income itemizing deductions and claiming the children as dependents (or two of them if it is Loving); the other one can take the standard deduction and one of the dependents. One of them can even claim as single head of household. By the time they are through, one of them might be getting EIC money back. Bottom line is they will have a much lower tax liability than they would if they were married.

'Cause they're stupid! At least she is, if one of them is a she.
