A Victory for Gay Marriage In Mexico City?

A new Mexico City law goes into effect March 4 that will allow same-sex couples to marry and adopt children, propelling the city to the forefront of the global gay rights movement.
A backlash is attempting to have the law declared unconstitutional.  One argument being made is that Mexico City already has civil unions for same-sex couples.

That argument, however, just raises the issue of whether government should provide marriage at all; it could instead provide civil unions to both same-sex and opposite sex couples, leaving marriage to religious institutions.

What about couples that are not part of an organized religion? Do they settle for a civil union with no "marriage?"

Yes. Marriage should be like any other contract -- the parties provide the terms, in mutual agreement, and the state (probably) enforces them. Now for those who might get confused there can be standard-form marriage contracts, just as there are for wills,etc. People could select the so-called covenant marriage or whatever. If they can find a church to bless them, fine. But all will equally legally married. As a final point, the state should not confer any privileges or disadvantages to the married state.

On my surprise it works excellent! All the matter is that the price low, because I do not pay for the trade mark. That's all!
You can see explanations about it.
A generic drug (generic drugs, short: generics) is a drug which is produced and distributed without patent protection. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, generic drugs are identical bioequivalent range to the brand name counterpart with respect to pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties. By extension, therefore, generics are considered identical in dose, strength, route of administration, safety, efficacy, and intended use. In most cases, generic products are available once the patent protections afforded to the original developer have expired. When generic products become available, the market competition often leads to substantially lower prices for both the original brand name product and the generic forms.
