[quote=Anonymous]Maybe because marital assets are owned equally by a husband and wife, regardless of who received the pay check. This type of inquiry sets married spouses on different footing from each other if they have different earnings, even though the law otherwise generally recognized spouses as a financial unit that works collectively in its best interest, including in choosing distribution of labor, such as who works, how much, in what kind of job and with what flexibility, who takes care of childcare, family stuff, etc. Undermining the treatment of the marital couple as a single financial unit (though, again, assets to pay off credit card bills, etc. are owned equally) shifts financial power toward the person who received the pay check. People are not otherwise required to ask permission essentially to use money (marital property) that it theirs. [/quote]
