For once Unkotare and I agree. For that matter, single parents should at least get the same tax breaks as gay-marrieds because unlike gay-marrieds, single hetero parents at least give their children hope that one day they may have a father (or mother)... Gay marrieds get monitary incentives to strip that hope clean out of a little boy's hope for a father (in the case of lesbians) or little girls (rare, but gay men do occasionally adopt girl orphans over their vast preference for little orphaned boys..) hope for a mother..How about nobody gets a tax break for simply getting married?
How about everybody does?
Why not singles also? What are the tax breaks for anyway if they no longer serve to entice a mother & father for children? To entice adults to shack up just for the sake of shacking up? Seriously? What does a state get out of that? Let's say gays can marry, just not qualify for tax breaks. Let's say the states rearrange law to say that "only people who will display the legal bonding of provision of both a mother and father to children" may claim "child-sensitive parental-bonded tax breaks." Just remove the word "married" from the tax forms and require a legal bond of hetero man/woman to claim the child-sensitive qualifiers.
Children who have both a mother and father grow up to be the best adjusted adults statistically. Otherwise prison rolls, indigency, drug addiction and crime go up. That's why marriage was invented over a thousand years ago. Anything less a state will statistically lose money on. That's why states incentivized normal marriage with tax breaks. Now that normal marriage doesn't exist, the tax code has to be rethought... It is wholly-ludicrous that states should be required by the federal government to invest in a situation statistically prognosticated to result in their fiscal demise: PRINCE'S TRUST 2010 YOUTH INDEX SURVEY
...I think I read case law once in USSC Opinions where there was a similar case where the fed's mandate caused an excessive fiscal burden to states and states won and the fed mandate lost.
