[null and void]

Yep, but California law assumes that being married to a man for too long permanently ruins a woman's ability to find her way in that big old nasty world. His alimony payments never expire.

Indeed should he be so foolish as to remarry to a woman who has a job, the new wife's income gets added to his and his alimony payments go up!

Well, unless and until you work to change that law, I guess it would encourage one to choose wisely. Making marriage easier to get out of certainly hasn't won sweeping Freeper approval either.
