The hotel industry is going to have to tweak it's traditional Honeymoon Package....and the new breed of divorce lawyers will probably be able to get away with having just a 'minor' in custody issues.

Speaking of attorneys, bidniss is bidniss...hey, that extra one percent of marital spats coming their way will be quite welcome.

This is a goldmine for lawyers! Divorce rates for gays will be high--the only ones who will gain are the insurance companies and the divorce courts. The next issue will be Poligamy--The Islamic peoples and traditionalist Mormons will spearhead this movement. It will take years but--Gay Marriage is now a thing that is here to stay! (It might cut down some of the AIDS stuff) Interesting note--Most of the people getting this are women.

I will repeat my prediction:
This new definition of "spouse" will end up thus:
Small and middle sized and many large sized businesses will drop all health, dental, eyecare benefits for ALL their employees because they won't be able to afford the sky-high premiums associated with AIDS and connected diseases. Thus, 93+% of the working population will lose their hard earned benefits because of a very small % of employees who will bankrupt the health insurance industry.
Won't happen exactly overnight, but will happen. Smart businesses are looking at this right now. Unions will be in a bind in future contract negotiations over this issue. Current strike in So Cal over grocery workers having to may $5 to $15/weekly towards their health insurance which in the past has been TOTALLY FREE has been going on since Sept of Oct. Stores aren't budging, and unions are in trouble.
Will all this lead to National Health Insurance like Hillary wanted? Could. This is just the canary in the mine---Mark my words.
