So why don’t they get married, already?

Mom probably gets some government money that depends upon her being a single parent. She's only acting in response to the reward system. Change the rewards and you change the behavior.

O' the joys of socialized medicine!

I wish I could put my wife through all that for the "greater good".

In the US at least, more government benefits if you are unmarried.

The larger reason is the decline of Christianity and the breakdown of the family. Why bother getting married if you expect to divorce anyway?
