Take the whole thing a step further. As long as there are estate taxes, would new laws regarding same-sex marriage also allow legal incest, so that children could marry a parent just before the parent passes on? That would allow the spouse exemption to the child which does not apply under current law. Inquiring minds want to know...

Incestuous marriages will still not be allowed, even though every argument for allowing two men to marry applies equally to allowing a man to marry his mother. Same thing with polygamy. The incest and polygamy proponents just don't have nearly the political pull as the homosexuals.
