Why is the asset protection allowance so low for single parents? ...

<p>I don't understand the reasoning behind it being so much lower for households headed by one parent versus those headed by two.</p>

<p>That is something we have discussed before. It makes no sense whatsoever that a single parent gets less that 50% of the asset protection a 2 parent family gets.</p>

<p>Yeah, I’m just trying to figure out their reasoning. They must have a reason.</p>

<p>Always keep in mind who mandates the formula … Congress. Need I say more?</p>
