So, how would the economy do if the percentage of Catholics who stopped using function halls other than K of C offset the 2% gain if every Gay couple got hitched?

It doesn’t matter if it’s moral...It brings in money to buy votes, so it must be a good thing, right?

Same hocus-pocus phony baloney arguments could be made for *any* activity illegal across states lines.

State Economy could benefit from crack cocaine drug bazaars and opium dens. Think of the money that would be rolling in from the drug addicts flocking to the state.

Or machine gun purchases. Or gambling.

If they can only get married in state run casinos, just think of the revenue!

That’s 53 cents per Marylander. These data shouldn’t change any minds.

Hey, as long as we’re using this as a rationale, I think setting up Elkton as a major competitor of Bangkok in the child sex trade would help the economy, too.

Yes because as you know, we determine our morality by the highest bidder....

The older I get, the more I cam convinced, bloodshed is the only way this nation will get back to its roots, and it will not happen soon.

in the case of Massachusetts, we have had white flight for the last five years or so. Politics and taxes. I can’t wait to get away from the virulent Gays in this state, it is now a completely amoral cesspool. They are busy polluting the public school system, plumbing for recruits.

Legalized prostitution would also boosted the economy, as would “child-sex” tourism. That’s no argument in favor of anything.

Being married in MD brings a huge tax penalty and MD just increased it a few weeks ago with the special session. Shouldn't they have a lower tax bracket for same sex marriages like tuition discounts to illegals?

But what if traditional heterosexual couples boycotted companies that provide services for “gay marriages”?

Some revenues just aren’t worth the moral hassle.
