So, I was thinking about some things lately after the 13% increase in my insurance premiums at work, and how it might relate to the Gay Marriage Advocacy, it's connection to Healthcare reform, and it's relevance to Architecture because, as we all know, there are alot of gays in our profession (not that there is anything wrong with that). Single men cost more to insure than married men...gay men are not married...gay men that are married are afforded lower insurance premiums because married people are less promiscuous and therefore less likely to have diseases or worse yet, get HIV, and subsequently they are more insurable becuase of the lowered risk. Group rates are offered to firms and depending on the familial status of the employees, the premiums are determined. More Single men=Higher overall premiums for the group.
So, in a nutshell, if gays are allowed to marry, then will our insurance premiums go down, thus reforming healthcare in a way that benefits everyone?
married people are less promiscuous and therefore less likely to have diseases or worse yet, get HIV, and subsequently they are more insurable becuase of the lowered risk.
Well I think in the end the Insurance companies apply our rates as a percentage based on total costs / devided by your demographics impact upon that cost.
If gay marriage is legally recognized they aren't going to suddenly be less promiscuous: If they are monogamous in marriage they probably were monogamous before the state legally recognized this marriage, meaning they weren't a drain on the system therefore the actual costs imposed upon the insurance companies probably isn't going to change at all simply because thier marriage is now legal. This means the total cost thought to be imposed by married couples was disproportionately small before because there was a large portion of the poulation who were misplaced in the "single" catagory because they were gay.
Meaning premiums for married people would actually go up, and premiums for single people would go down.
I would also think that as a population, gay men spend much more time at a gym than their straight male counterparts. they probably eat healthier and live a generally healthier lifestyle
4arch that may be the most intelligent solution i have ever heard. and why not? marriage is a primeval institution based on nothing that is relavant anymore, now that we've destroyed god.
Gays + Marriage / Insurance = Healthcare Reform?

Love the screen name, love the logic. You get a gold star!
Gays + marriage/ divorce rate = more lawyers
gays + marriage = pissed off conservatives = happy e
see, that is the canadian plan.
cheap healthcare, legalised gay marriage, and fewer unlocked weapons at home...makes life happier for everyone. it is a long term plan.
werd.
what confuses me is that the conservative movement is supposedly pro-life.
yet they support the death penalty, support war, oppose saving the planet, oppose protecting endangered species, etc etc.
You can't replace dead soldiers with aborted babies.
And you can't make room for soldiers and babies without killing a few Murderers.
yes, more archinect math. let me try.
(archinectors +/- george w. bush)/(gay marriage+insurance rates)=douchebags
2dykes/dildo=straight
i'm lesbian and i cant figure out the loop holes
cryzko=guy
(cryzko+2lezbian)/.5=(happycryzko)
2 Dykes + Crisco = Cryzko
put that on a shirt

this point is particularly hilarious.
But wait - don't insurance programs love that they can exclude non-married partners (gays and otherwise) from their coverage?
I like e's math above. liberty bell = totally pro-gay marriage

Even me?
yes, even you
$5 says that a gay man is much more likely to get regular STD tests than a straight guy
I would also think that as a population, gay men spend much more time at a gym than their straight male counterparts. they probably eat healthier and live a generally healthier lifestyle
gay men also dont have the stress of being married to a woman...
yeah but everyone looks at 2 lesbians holding hands.....
^only if they are hot...
ALL FAGS ARE GOING TO HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I mark homophobes and insurance companies as more or less equivalent in terms of evil. Blue Cross, we are not done yet.
JESUS HATES GAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No, they are just condemned to this thread...posting every 52 minutes, maximum.
One of the many reasons why I made the switch to Libertarian.
