DC Tom Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 http://www.boston.com/news/local/new_hampshire/articles/2011/07/10/mass_city_to_pay_wedded_gay_workers_to_offset_tax/ Cambridge---making things right in the world! What the bloody !@#$? That, all around, is completely retarded. MA paying a "gay stipend" to gay couples married under MA law because Federal law doesn't recognize MA law in an issue the Federal government has NO business being in in the first place? Where the !@#$ does any of that even BEGIN to make any sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 I can't tell from this article, since the author was only interested in same-sex couples, but what about opposite-sex domestic partners, are they covered by this new policy too? I'm pretty sure those folks don't get the dependent tax break on the medical premiums either. Regardless, while I don't necessarily agree this is the best way to highlight the issue, there is a legitimate complaint here that this policy is addressing. The IRS policy is clearly discriminatory.
