[ Politics ] Open Question : Does Hawaii have the right idea?

Hawaii lawmakers gave final approval to civil unions Wednesday and sent the legislation to Democratic Gov. Neil Abercrombie, who plans to sign it into law within 10 business days. Civil unions would begin Jan. 1, 2012, making the state the seventh in the nation to grant virtually the same rights of marriage to same-sex couples without authorizing marriage itself. http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2011-02-17-hawaii-civil-unions_N.htm I think so. This way everyone can be quiet about the issue. Homosexuals will get their rights and responsibilities and be taxed just the same as married couples but will not be considered married, rather they are considered unionized by the state, thus civil union.
