If you procreate with your sister, you're going to likely have kids which will burden the system due to their birth defects.

Not really. If my wife and I were to divorce and then marry our cats, we'd pay about half the taxes we do right now. When one spouse produces income and the other, Toonces, does not, there's a significant marriage bonus.

As for polygamy, assuming we can work out the tax stuff and not allow for some polygamy "superbonus," then I'm really okay with polygamy so long as we're still talking about consenting, non-related adults.

You asked for a rational, non-moralistic reason, so there it is.

In your furry-love world, if my cat decides it lives at another house, does that mean my cat gets half my stuff?
