(regarding the statement that most corporations already offer life partner benefits)...
Belverron, do you (or anyone) have a source for this? I'm just curious. I've already said it's not actually relevant in my opinion, because they are doing so voluntarily, which is fine by me. I know many major corporations offer such benefits, but to claim that a majority of companies do so seems dubious at best. But again, I'm just making an educated guess and you could be right on this.
