Waiting list to get divorced?

While flipping through channels here in my Hotel room in New Orleans, I came across a program focusing on divorce in the US (or possibly just the States of Louisiana). Apparently there is someone (or some group) out there trying to get a bill passed that would make it necessary for couples who wish to get divorced to wait 2 years before they could actually be granted a divorce. Even in cases where the divorce is as trouble free as a divorce could possibly be. Which to me is just insane, forcing people to stay married who don't want to be married is almost criminal and in some cases potentially deadly! Plus the bill is disguising itself as a way for tax payers to save money, which I don't actually see as happening. Divorces actually generate money for the state, rather than cost money as a whole. With attorney fees, court fees, paperwork filing fees and so on. Hence it's no wonder that the supporters of such a bill real motivations are religiously based.
