Biden spending discriminates against the married?

 Washington Examiner:

Biden's $3.5 trillion spending bill ramps up the Left's assault on marriage

...

 Even after controlling for race and income, children born to married parents reach adulthood healthy, wealthy, and gainfully employed at higher rates than those born to unmarried parents. Married adults are themselves healthier, wealthier, and happier than their unmarried counterparts. No institution has a better track record than marriage of fostering successful life outcomes.

For 60 years, the Left has responded to this, as night follows day, by trying to supplant families with social engineering programs. Virtually every means-tested program — Medicaid, food stamps, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, public housing, and Obamacare, to name just a few — punish people by stanching the flow of benefits to those who get married.

By expanding these programs, Biden’s $3.5 trillion spending agenda makes these marriage penalties worse. According to a new paper by the Niskanen Center, Biden’s Earned Income Tax Credit expansion would by itself cause couples to lose $2,500 per year if they tie the knot.

Some couples would suffer more than others. Couples without children in which one partner makes significantly more than the other would suffer the smallest penalties. Couples in which a single mother earns about the same as her partner would suffer the most.

...

You tend to get more of what you pay for and these programs tend to reward the unmarried at the expense of the married.
