I have a curious. Why is it, in this day of uber political correctness and everything has to be fair especially if you're gay/a minority/etc, everybody is treating gay marriage like it is some sort of bogey man? How would this in any way change the skyrocketing hetero divorce rate? Does this threaten single parents and unwanted children? Oh wait! I know! If we allow alternate lifestyles the same basic right to the misery, pain, joy and fulfillment of marriage then we ( as hetero couples) can no longer deny them the right to adopt children in care of the state that desperately need loving homes. Wait.. no.. that doesn't make sense. I mean really, what kind of moron would want to keep kids in a system that degrades and dehumanizes them whilst sucking down taxpayer dollars like a stoner at whitecastle? That wouldn't make any sense at all, especially in our current economic situation.
Here's the reality kids. Allowing any loving couple to get married no matter their gender shouldn't even be an issue. In a manner of speaking, it directly violates the constitution. We have freedom of religion, so you can't spank the bible over it. We have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Not sure all would agree that getting married is the same as pursuing happiness but hey, this is my blog so neener neener.
Frankly I would like the gov't to stop trying to micromanage my life. Stop trying to tell me who I can marry, how I should reproduce, what I can eat and what kind of freaking lightbulb I can buy. Your job is to manage the big picture, not be my daddy. And before I will even pretend to listen, you need to fix your own mess.
Republicans, your shit DOES stink. deal.
Democrats, Get over yourselves. We're over you.
All political parties, RTFM
Stop being egomaniacal toddlers that skipped naptime and start at least pretending to play adults on TV.
The progressive tax system is obviously fatally flawed and mortally wounded from all the loopholes. Institute a flat tax, no exceptions, no refunds. I expect it would be much easier to formulate a budget if you had a semi-predictable income. Kill the estate tax. Making money on grief is just gruesome. Stop spending money you don't have. That's just basic common sense kids. I have to live within my means, you should too.
