The Grand Hoax Continues

So most people are already at the apathetic stage of the "gay marriage" issue.  Soon, the gays will be confined to marriage as well.  Marriage looks great on paper but not all people are able to get married for many reasons-one being based on rules of their church.  That doesn't seem like much, but if you are Catholic, you know what I mean. 

Let us ask: Has marriage become an entity that provides security?  If so, this is a sad comment about the social welfare of the people this state/country governs.  In a country that takes dollars to buy protection whether it be in Homeland Security or "Global Interests", but offers an elitist brand of medical care, limited social security for the aging (something the countries we go to war with, something the countries we get our natural gas from, don't offer), and other such structured benefits such as pension plans through industries along with health benefits, let us not forget the Veteran's benefit packages; why are such benefits allowed only for those who are married?

The hoax of these issues lie at the heart of our urgency to push for "Gay Marriage" under the umbrella of "Equal Rights."  If the gays were more civilly minded, they would see the big picture and help all others in doing so.  They would be awakening our nation to the truth.  What truth am I speaking of? Civil Unions; this makes better sense and allows the people to keep the benefits due to them on behalf of their partners and offspring.  The push for "Gay Marriage" takes our mind away from the real issues our country faces.  Crafty in its design and the fervor it creates in the hearts of Americans, fueling debates across the country, we are having our rights stolen from us.  It is designed to force people under the same roof to seek a contract with the ending clause of, "Till death do we part" while we all know that one in five marriages ends in broken contracts creating our nations number two GDP(gross domestic product) through divorce. So, someone gets richer off intangible products such as marriage and divorce, like sickness and death our nation's number one GDP, which leaves the bulk of our people at the mercy of a system that looks good on paper (like communism) but rapes the rights of us as I type.    We are being bled and we don't even know it. 

Some might say that our country can't sustain the costs of health care.  Nowthat is the real problem.  Some would also say we can't sustain the cost of providing benefits to Veterans, let alone their family.  The states would say, "Though you people have raised your children and have lived together for the past...10,20,30 years, we do not recognize you as being married; therefore, benefits aren't available to you.  And, in companies who provide retirement for their workers it is the same for those left behind because they didn't buy into the hypocritical concept of marriage in a country that allows for every other kind of behavior but determines that some contracts are made to be broken; in the name of profit of course. 

So at the heart of our country's legislative practices the concept of profits over humanity has become the torch of our modern day liberty.

I say go to ground zero and build anew.  Let us reform our policies and allow people who love each other to enter a civil union contract, allow them to do the living trusts which will pass the benefits on to others.  Companies will be forced to advertise for help more honestly by not promising "benefits" they have no intention of honoring.  Let us figure out a way to provide health care without warring at some local office amongst tons of strangers doing the same, hoping to get medicine that doesn't cost 77 dollars a week.  Make it available to all.  If the price of medicine must come down, the price of health care become more affordable, then so be it.  Make that happen.  This of course brings into question the sue-happy nature of our country making it extremely expensive for doctors and hospitals to operate, but that is an issue that side-steps the focus of what "Gay Marriage" is really doing.

Nevermind that marriage is an entity that creates only two things, the husband and the wife; that is just a matter of redefining the word<cough>.  If we go through with this, we won't be addressing the real issues of Social Reform, no.   We will be, through irreversible legislation, voting on and passing laws regarding marriage that will confine us in the long run and serve only the spirit of elitism.

Gay marriage isn't a right--it steals our rights.  This isn't just an issue for gay people, its an issue for all others as well.  What is best for us all?  We may never know.  Let usjust stay heated up about all these smaller issues.  Why should we have to think about anything when others will do the thinking for us?  Let us allow a few to make painful laws that the rest of us have to live by.  We won't even be able to cry "foul".  Liberty has gone to hell.
