I'm going to go with a big negatory there.


But it's okay for state's to incentivize other behaviors, intuitions, businesses, etc. based on local, state and/or federally implemented carrot or stick legislation. Why should a particular type of marriage be any different? What makes marriage special that different types of marriage cannot be quelled and/or promoted?

So what is the likely effect? Is this a law that will actually accomplish it's intended effect, or is it just a way to put a stamp on a certain kind of marriage and call it better?

Just so I'm clear with this, you want a tax credit because a man marries a woman, and then you see no issue with that.

Hell, if you really want to debate, homosexuals have higher wages and save more per multiple studies. Maybe we should incentivize that :D
