A lot of conversations continue pertaining to requests that the city use tax dollars to provide benefits for gay and lesbian employees with domestic partners. The proposal was billed as an enticement for recruiting LGBT’s to the tax base. LGBT’s reportedly increase the tax base because typically both partners work at high-paying jobs. That is why one or the other needs extra help paying the others’ benefits and paying the other to stay home and watch the baby. I don’t get it.
