Right, so they will never agree with my suggestions, whether we grandfather them in or not. At least, not until we see a greater societal collapse that forces them to really reevaluate things. Personally, I doubt even that would make enough people support marriage again. It may be one of those things that, once you lose it, it is gone forever.
So, since I see things from that perspective, I have no reason to compromise and say we should grandfather anything in. Neither proposal is ever going to happen, so as long as we are just talking fantasy scenarios, I’ll stick with the fantasy that is most consistent with my values.
Three things that will bring a reversal of all this:
Depression (could bring more socialism)
Major War (won’t happen) I don’t think Iran will attack Israel. I would wait and let demographics run it’s course. Muslim increase in population and then push for total democracy.
Major terrorist attack ( if I were an islamic terrorist, why attack the US with a sympathizer in the WH)?
I think we’re up sh!% creek without a paddle.
