So what are they missing out on? If we want limited government why is anyone treated any different by our government? If they share a home and one dies the other can assume ownership ahead of time by the two of them having a quit claim deed made. Tax breaks? Why not get the government out of taxing based on being married. They are so many ways for a same sex couple to assure themselves of the kind of future they want and leave the institution of marriage alone. In the long run it's got nothing to do with that though but more to do with destroying the family unit and anything that is decent.
