> This is the whole idea behind lower tax brackets for married couples and similar things.
I'm confused by that statement. From my experience, married couples pay more in taxes (in the US) than they would if each were single (and making the same amount).
Or am I misunderstanding, and you meant that there _should_ be lower taxes for married couples?
