an interesting study on same-sex marriage's affect on federal revenue

For those of you who don't read redactrice's LJ, here's a link to the study she just finished editing at CBO. It's interesting in that it suggests that, were same-sex couples allowed to marry, their doing so would have only a slight effect on federal revenues, and that effect would be positive (mostly because they are likely to fall into the "penalized" portion of married couples, those with two partners of roughtly equivalent income.)
