all. it s not recognized by the federal government, so here you are and you are working and you have now you want to cover him or her on your health insurance premiums. they are going to have positive pay income taxes on the costs of the insurance premiums. heterosexual couples would not have to do that. there are estate tax implications, and, again, income tax implications. social security implications. all kinds of ways where straight couples get breaks. homosexual couples do not. it costs the economy because money that s going into extra taxes, into these other expenses could be going into the economy to benefit everybody. suze, i know you did a special on this on cnbc last summer, and kind of big head scratcher out of this was that gay and lesbian couples pay more in this country to be treated unequally. so does that make any sense?
