Kids get survivor benefits through social security from each parent lost. My 8 year old son gets $900/mo. I'm sure it varies by... everything.

That $1000 - $1200 annual hit almost certainly doesn't take into account that every corp is going to use it as an excuse to raise prices for everything across the board. Who thinks we're only gonna pay the minimum required to offset tarrifs? It'll be another year of record profits.
This is probably an unpopular take, and it should be noted that I'm just totally disregarding the whole personal data aspect of this, but... I kinda appreciate it when I'm given some kind of way to provide feedback on stuff like this. If there was one part of the process that was more absurd than even I expected, or if just the whole thing is shit, I prefer to be able to express that. Maybe it just makes me feel better I guess. Sometimes it's cathartic to chew out a survey form over something that was so egregious that it's made me angry.
I'm also a huge advocate for exit interviews though. Somebody quits, ask them why, what was good, what was bad. Fire someone, ask them just the same. A lot of my work experience has been yearly contracts where termination is scheduled, expected, and common, but I do think other types of employers would benefit from actually proactively seeking feedback.
This example probably isn't that and the employer is probably shit, but I just wanted to put that out there.

The replies here are disappointing but not surprising. If you willfully cross your moral boundaries, those aren't your moral boundaries.
It's not fair you should have to make this choice and I don't believe you deserve the negative consequences of standing by your morals in this situation, but reality doesn't care about any of that. You still have to make the choice and you still have to deal with the outcome.
No way in hell would I break my own code of ethics for an employer. I've said no before and I will again. Sometimes that costs me financially. I feel for you.
