The other day I was sitting at the Social Security office waiting to get an application put through for a duplicate card.

When this old, very old lady comes in. Explains to the people that her husband just died, and she only get $62 a month in Social Security, while her husband got $1100. So after a little typing they transfered his account to her, so she will now get his funds.

Gay couples also deserve this protection. Fine, don't call it marriage because it seems like it's something to do with the bible. But remember that Hindus, Buddhists, Atheists, etc also get married, no bible involved.
