I don't care what the taxes are like now. I'm asking about what happens when the "repeal" goes in. Does repealing the marriage penalty mean that a married couple with one high income and one low or no income spouse will pay exactly the same taxes as they would if they were single? If so I am for repealing the marriage penalty. If otoh it does what an email I have here says, which is that after the marriage penalty is waived, then married couples will be able to combine their incomes and divide by two (which results in less taxes paid than if they were two single people) then I am not for repealing the marriage penalty.
