    I'm not entirely opposed to capping gifting, it's one of the ways the rich get around inheritance laws and such.

    Over here, your welfare is dependent on your partner not earning too much. So, for disabled people you're at much higher risk of abuse being trapped in a relationship, have lower independence, and anyone entering a relationship with you has to take on a financial burden.

      Yup same here on that too. Also spouses income impacts your rights. So a lot of domestic abuse or exploitation gets hidden when people (often women) have no personal income and are at home with a spouse who earns so much they don't qualify for the basic income to even theoretically fund getting away, not that it would be enough for that.
