#69 — “The government should get out of the marriage business entirely, not continue to build fiat upon restriction.”

Isn’t the only reason the government is involved in the first place mostly to be able to oversee financial/legal entanglement?

As far as I can tell the gays merely want to be able to get spousal benefits, e.g. health insurance, benefits if the spouse dies, etc. If so, isn’t the government sorta required for the legality aspect?
