On Equality
Blogger Idiot Savant is a support of gay marriage and joint adoption for gay couples - because he supports equality. Fair enough.Those who don't agree with him are described as bigots. To him, equality is a matter of principle. So I ask him, when will he address the fact that gay couples are able to be treated differently to other couples - and thus get a greater amount of assistance from the state when they are unemployed or otherwise receiving a benefit? I would have thought equality would necessitate that they be treated the same as heterosexual couples rather than as two single individuals.
Strangely he is silent on this.Why?
