Everyone who fought to defend DOMA were arguing that the federal gov't should deny recognition of same-sex marriages for federal reasons including joint taxes
I know it'll warrant screams of straw-man, but I don't trust the left enough to give them things and not have it be mandate a day later. They're children. They've devolved into babies that when they get what they want, they want more.
I'm not a Democrat. just for the record
I am registered as an Independent in my state
is anybody actually democrat or GOP these days lol
i registered as a republican
i mean with core issues you believe it all.
I'll be honest, I don't think same-sex couples should get advantages that were put in place because in the old days marriages meant reproduction
if you consider yourself center-anything, you're neither
i don't think anyone should get advantages.
^
government should not be involved in marriage period
indeed
No argument
if marriages aren't innerently to reproduce, the state should get out of that (along with all the benefits)
Big agree
actually i would give advantages for people who stay married and have kids
it might keep the single mother rate down
marriage is a mild tax penalty
XD
I don't have the stats to back this up, but i'd be willing to bet money that the only people who have gained advantages in the past 40 years have all voted democrat
yea thats why
If we want to encourage kids, we need a way for couples to file jointly
the benefits it conveys stem from joint ownership or survivorship rights
Unless we ditch income tax 🤔
so the government should reward families who stay married
Whether same sex or not ^^
I'm also not convinced that same-sex couples are the greatest of the environments to raise kids. But as the whole thing is new, there's no data on this
i love tax reform
make a couple worse off for divorcing in the first place
data seems to show that it is at least better than single parent environments
I think same-sex couple who ensure that their kids have wholesome interaction with members of the unrepresented sex do pretty well
Then again, I'm biased
ideally the federal income tax burden would shrink and the state tax burden would increase to take up the slack. then if the state wants to give benefits, that's their business.
But I've seen plenty of others who follow the same model we do and they all seem to have happy families
and this is something most people just don't understand
pull tax records on the homes in San Francisco's Castro district
a lot of those properties pay next to nothing because ownership has been passed from spouse to spouse
and the taxable value is set on transfer
@DrYuriMom I agree, the thing is, a high number of same-sex couples are deviants
I mean, they promote a lot of weird things
