I don't understand your point.
Really ???

Our country shares the expenses we incur, i.e. income tax. Isn't a marriage a union of two people who commit to sharing all things, including expense?

My point was that we don't necessarily choose a career based on it's salary. Your point had claimed that you shouldn't be penalized for your wife's career choice.
