Gay Marriage: Not Only About Love And Politics

I found this older article in the New York Times http://www.nytimes.com/2012/02/19/business/gay-marriage-debate-is-about-money-too.html?_r=0 Gay Marriage Debate Is About Money Too.  It raises the questions about people going into business together are given more rights than two people going into a relationship together.  To me this says that we should put more faith into business than we should into peoples emotions and this doesn't sit well with me since I have a gay son.  My son should have all of the rights that anyone going into business has such as tax deductions and shelters and he should have the trust from those around him that it will last as if it is a business.  As we have seen in today's society most relationships last longer than new businesses so shouldn't we support new relationships as much as we support new businesses?  To me it doesn't matter what sex the couple is, it is about emotions and support and being happy with who you are.  I have read some other blogs and articles saying that same sex marriage will be the downfall of society and cause destruction in neighborhoods and cause children to question themselves and all I have to say about that is shame on you.  Don't worry about other people's relationships....worry about your own.
