Don't you think they should be able to, though? If two people are living together & operating as a family unit, I don't think it should matter what sex they are. They should still be able to recieve the same social benefits etc as everybody else, don't you think? I don't really see how it can be any other way, if this is really to be a free, indiscriminatory country. It's fine if we don't call it "marriage", since that seems inheirently tied with religion, but that's a realitivly minor matter.Originally posted by: Vic

No, idiot. The only way it will affect straight people is through higher taxes and insurance premiums, as married gays take advantage of the legal and monetary benefits of being married.

I don't think it would be. It's easy to make that assumption, since many people see it as "us" and "them". They imagine "them" moving into the same category as "us", and they don't like that, or something. I don't know.Originally posted by: Klixxer

The question is, would it even be noticeable?

Sigh... as the smallest example, it is typical with most employer benefits to include coverage for the spouse at little to no cost to the employee.Originally posted by: Eli

How would gay people raise insurance premiums & taxes? If anything, the culture is more conservative than the rest of society.......

Next example: 7 years of marriage entitles the widowed to full survivorship Social Security benefits for life, including disability.
One more: military pensions and benefits with full survivorship rights.
Not noticeable? Hardly. Gay marriage will cost the taxpayers many, many billions of dollars, though the full impact will take some years to materialize.
You think this is about some civil rights? Let's all not be so naive...

Well... if I had my say, none of those benefits would exist, and I could care less about gay marriage. But then of course the gays wouldn't want to marryOriginally posted by: Ryuson99
So really you just don't like the idea of more people marrying because the same thing you said does not only apply to gay couples but to straight ones as well.
your point is meaningless
They are not discriminated against. That's propaganda. They have the exact same right to marry that the rest of us do.Originally posted by: Klixxer
I believe you are correct, the effects would not be noticeable. However, even if they were that is not a good enough reason to discriminate against gays imo.
