The 30% of tax that you are paying will likely be paid regardless of who is collecting benefits on any given year... I can't imagine a tax system that would increase based on something as fluid as that... Again, benefits in general are a seperate issue from gay marriage. It sounds more like you are upset with taxation.

To me it sounds like either a) you aren't clear on what taxes are or b) you don't like gay marriage
my issue is about taxation and how marrige is going to end up raising taxes.

if i were not royally screwed over i would not be so bitter about this. what really pisses me of is that i have to pay taxes like that and still have to pay full tuition at colleges. maybe if i were allowed financial assistance i would be more willing.

you probably find this pretty shallow but i need that money to pay for college because i will never ask my parents to pay that tuition.
