How does it effect anyone
Married Gays can dodge higher income taxes by filing jointly.
They can qualify for Spousal benefits, Social Security, employee benefits etc...
The divorce courts will be burdened with more cases, costing the taxpayers more money.
The purpose of the benefits of marriage were to promote reproduction.
Finally, marriage is a religious ceremony established by the Govt., this would violate the first amendment.
