What if when a couple got married the government gave them $500 each
and when they wanted to get a divorce they had to pay it back with interest. Would that encourage marriage and discourage divorce?

1. People don't have to pay in divorce?
:rofl:

Anyone who has been divorced will tell you otherwise. There's little financial incentive to say the least.
