You either belive govt should be in the business of marriage or not. I dont. Your questions sounded like you do. I dunno what you were getting at, but I dont think you made your point.
Civil marriage is created and administered by government - how do you propose government not "dictate" it?
ooof. Right after you tell me where that power is enumerated, I’ll answer your question.
Sorry, I assumed you knew something about the subject - civil marriage is created and administered by STATE government, so enumeration is a nonissue.
But of course, you’ll advocate it at the federal level, so it really is.
I love it when people tell me what I think (the Drug Warriors are big on that). What exactly do you think I'll advocate at the federal level?

What does that concretely mean? Should there be no such thing as civil marriage at the state or federal level?

My point is that your protest against "using big govt to dictate marriage" is incoherent. You can provide specifics, or continue to kick and fuss - your call.
