It's always tiring to try and push your bigotry onto others as your side is slowly dying out.

You're not worth the aggravation. Go on an wallow in your perversions. God will deal with it all at the appointed time.
Since there is no god, and gay people do not have any perversions that heterosexuals do not have themselves, your "aggravation" is only of your own making.
go wallow in your bigotry and let the REST of us REAL humans, go on with our lives.
The more interesting part is how same-sex marriage affects the budget. Most people will think of it as changing income taxes and benefits for gay public employees. But some of the biggest effects come in welfare programs: Marriage makes people more robust against financial shocks and less likely to qualify for welfare programs.

I really have no clue what you're talking about. Perhaps we are taking "financial predator" to mean different things. What did you mean by it?
Okay: A Financial Predator is one where a partner enters a marriage because:
One partner is constantly gaining financial benefits from the other, and the "predator" is comforted by the fact that if that relationship ends in Divorce, he/she will likely walk away with a handsome financial benefit in a "divorce settlement."
Or, hasn't your god gotten around to telling you that yet?
And how is he (or she) going to "deal with it?" Is he/she going to "smite" all the gays, as well as everyone who supports their right to be treated equally and fairly and with the dignity and respect the rest of us enjoy?

Oh. Given the context of your OP (gay marriage is costly), I took "financial predators" to mean those entering into a gay marriage so that collectively they take advantage of the financial marriage benefits offered by the state.
As to your meaning, sure, some gay marriages are/will be like that. However, I can't imagine why it would be any more often than similar straight marriages. Ever heard of a trophy wife or a golddigger? It's pretty much a female archetype.
To be accurate - I think the Media is now very heavy promoting the idea of Gay Marriage,
and it is being sold as "just another human right".
If we strip away the usual media fog around it, to show that the issue is really just about money, I wonder how many would actually support it ?
In other words, the Majority is being sold a fantasy - not the real goods, with the price tag showing. (It's a bit like Obamacare in that way.)
As I have said, I am in favor of Gay Marriage, so long as it is not shifting costs to tax payers. Show me that is true, and you have my support. I see no reason why Gay people should not be treated with dignity, but don't ask me for my checkbook.

In all fairness this could be hell right now.
