I hope not. I definitely think they should be able to visit their loved one in the hospital, but I don't think that we should go so far as to legalize gay marriage.
And with respect to another question posed in the thread about why the government is involved in marriage, I suppose that is because so many things involved in marriage are intertwined with areas regulated by the government, so that's why they have so much "say" concerning marriage. But I do agree about the taxation issue. But then again, I don't just find it troublesome with how married people are taxed, I have problems with how EVERYONE is taxed.
