John Kerry again is demonstrating a sad lack of foresight. Kerry is now saying he would grant state-sanctioned gay couples all the 1,049 federal benefits married couples lay claim to.
That's fine Mr. Kerry. How are you going to pay for it?
Now regardless of your position on gay marriage, there are significant consequences to this plan. The impact on Social Security survivor benefits alone would push the federal program past the breaking point.
But then again, Kerry has already made it clear that he wants to raise taxes.
