Can I make my marriage a co-op and no longer capitalist by default?

If Democracy at work creates a workers co-op, can democracy enter the personal relationship of say; marriage, to form a marriage co-op.

I like this idea, as it has a similar elegance to "Democracy at work", being "Democracy at home". And by practicing democratic values in our home, we have been able to celebrate and empower for example, what is usually abused under capitalism, child care. This celebration also comes with us no longer 'feeling' like we are capitalists and our marriage co-op profit enables us to promote our point of difference publicly.

    I can suggest one site https://www.maturedating.com/over-60.html for online dating. This dating site makes finding love simple and enjoyable. I liked how I could filter by interests, which helped me find like-minded people. The chats felt natural, not forced. After a few fun conversations, I met someone who instantly felt right for me. Now, we’re in a happy relationship thanks to this platform. It truly brings people together.

    Marriage offers significant legal, financial, and health benefits, including tax-filing advantages, next-of-kin status for medical decisions, and increased wealth accumulation. Married individuals often enjoy better physical and mental health, longer lifespans, and higher reported happiness levels. It also provides a stable environment for raising children.
