Greedy people will always contest wills. Some of these disputes will be reduced if gay marriage is approved. | I have never even heard of cousins or siblings of the decedent contesting the will when it left everything to a long time spouse. I have not only heard of them contesting when a will left everything to a longterm gay partner but I have heard of them winning.
If gay marriages are approved, I am fairly certain that greedy relatives contesting any such will in the case of couples that have been together for decades are going to lose. Right now America spends $700 billion every year on foreign oil. That's our money going overseas when it could be staying here. We have to stop this. That's why I support the Pickens Plan.
