If you see government fixes as a problems...then you have a different view of government.

I don't see that the reasoned justification that DOMA was a unjust and now ruled an unconstitutional law as a problem...Do you?

Doma was the problem...Problem solved.

Why do people need the government to approve of their relationships anyway? I find it strange when people willingly petition government to get more involved in what they can and cannot do.
They want all the free stuff and Obama Bucks that are only available to legally married people.
