Marriage Vs Marriage.. A question

[newracer]

Anyone concerned that people will get married just to get benefits of health insurance, etc?

Between the first recognition of AIDS in 1981 and 2009 it has led to nearly 30 million deaths. Encourage the lifestyle that has killed this many? They don't publicize this much anymore, as it is politically incorrect(if you are after votes). These are just the facts, I did not make this up. The DNA is traceable as the AIDS virus uses your DNA to replicate. See no emotions!~


Feel free to discuss virology and why you should not eat beef tainted with mad cow disease either...

And what lifestyle is it that has killed so many? AIDS can infect anyone... I lost an uncle to that terrible virus. So are you saying that promiscuity is what we should cease to encourage?

Legalizing/recognizing gay marriage isn't going to increase/decrease HIV/AIDS infections. Single/married/gay/straight/male/female are all affected by the disease and legislating marriage isn't going to change that.

I think that's more for citizenship.
Even if not married a hetro couple living together is able to put their (opposite sex) partner on their ins & health benefits. Whereas a same sex couple cannot.

Not where I work, they needed to see a copy of my marriage license.

I don't agree with it morally but legally and politically it shouldn't be an issue. Either government should have nothing to do with marriage or everyone should be able to marry whomever they want. I do however understand being against polygamy due to the ability to abuse the system that way.

The divorce rate is ACTUALLY closer to 20+%. The whole "well half of my friends are getting divorced" argument is such a micro observation that it doesn't hold water in the grand scheme of things.

The whole "for every 2 marriages in this country there is one divorce" is a combination of statistics that do not accurately paint the portrait of the divorce rate.

But anyways...
