If you look back in history you can find all the pedophilia and arranged marriage stuff in normal marriage as well, we instituted laws to control it. The same thing will happen with polygamy, we'll just apply current laws to the new situation. I think most, if not all, of the legal problems can avoided by slashing government perks to married couples. It's not really in the governments juristiction anyway to say that some people deserve tax breaks just because they signed a form together.
We have the infastructure and laws in place to prevent couples from being driven into bankrupcy by a large family already, you just wont be able to have a lot of kids.
Again, I don't really feel the need to prove one side or the other on grounds other than legality and precident, which clearly says 'go ahead'.
