Look at the exponential increase in the divorce rate after "no-fault" became the national norm in the late-60s / early-70s. Believe only NY still requires "show cause," although it's watered down.

Society has a big interest in limiting divorce, because it bears the massive costs of unmarried women and their children living in or near poverty. States will wise up one day and reinstate stringent cause factors before allowing marriages to be dissolved.

Society may have an interest, but Big Government loves them. Big Government would like to import several million more taxpayer dependents. We can't make them fast enough.
