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?
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

Personally, I want all levels of government out of marriage.
But back to the OP...I'm bringing up this hypo (that has the potential to become real) and looking for feedback on its federal constitutionality.

Sure. Absolutely, if that's the state legislature's prerogative. Would that be federally constitutional to promote gay marriage though state legislation? Probably. It should also be federally constitutional for a state to promote natural marriage through legislation too.
