Google pays people to be queer.

This just goes to show that once you give homers and homeresses one special privilege, they'll start demanding more.

Google to Add Pay to Cover a Tax for Same-Sex Benefits

Working for a company as rich as Google comes with an incredible number of fringe benefits: the free food, the free laundry, the free heroin, the doctor on duty at company headquarters and the impressive five months of maternity leave with full pay and benefits, to mention a few.

So it is not entirely surprising that the company is about to introduce another set of benefits that pushes the envelope — this time, geared toward its gay and lesbian workers.

On Thursday, Google is going to begin covering a cost that gay and lesbian employees must pay when their partners receive domestic partner health benefits, largely to compensate them for an extra tax that heterosexual married couples do not pay. The increase will be retroactive to the beginning of the year.

* * *

Under federal law, employer-provided health benefits for domestic partners are counted as taxable income, if the partner is not considered a dependent. The tax owed is based on the value of the partner’s coverage paid by the employer.

On average, employees with domestic partners will pay about $1,069 more a year in taxes than a married employee with the same coverage, according to a 2007 report by M. V. Lee Badgett, director of the Williams Institute, a research group that studies sexual orientation policy issues.

So Google is essentially going to cover those costs, putting same-sex couples on an even footing with heterosexual employees whose spouses and families receive health benefits.

It wasn't enough that sodomites got the special privilege of being treated almost like normal people. Now they want to be paid for it. This disgusts me, and since as a True Christian™ I have the mind of Christ (1 Cor. 2:16), that means that it disgusts Jesus as well.

Re: Google pays people to be queer.

They give their employees free heroin? :fear2:

They are even worse then I already thought.

Re: Google pays people to be queer.

There's a reason why same-sex couples pay more for the same health care. It's supposed to discourage companies from hiring gays.

Re: Google pays people to be queer.

So a homer gets a raise of $1,069 while the God Fearing Straight person gets the SHAFT. How is that fair?

Re: Google pays people to be queer.

It used to be that America TAXED sin. Now sinners get PAID to sin? What's next, a bonus for bestiality? :bad:

Re: Google pays people to be queer.

I see some significant problems with this:

Of course homers pay more for healthcare! Their whole lifestyle consists of high-risk sexual encounters! They have a disproportionate need for HIV/AIDS medication -- and for their whole lives too!

It encourages single men to pretend to be gay just to get benefits. And we all know that pretending leads to liking. It's the classical ploy that homers use.

Indeed. It was already easy enough to make the homer deathstyle choice; we don't need the unsaved blue-state liberals at Google to make it easier.

Re: Google pays people to be queer.

The more you use google, the more queer you become. FACT!

Re: Google pays people to be queer.

Oh sweet Jesus!! Strike down this wicked nation that would allow such disgust to exist. Oh mighty God show this nation back to true biblical law so that we can deal with the sodomites as your word teaches!!

I pray in the name of JESUS!!!

Because in America we have no king but GOD!!!

Google to offer gay staff extra pay to allow for tax inequality with straight couple

Last updated at 1:53 AM on 2nd July 2010

Google yesterday began paying its gay staff more than heterosexual employees.
Lesbian and homosexual staff at the internet firm will get extra wages to make up for higher taxes they have to pay.
Google is already famed as an extremely benevolent employer, giving its workforce free food, free laundry and five months’ maternity leave on full pay.

And given the competitive nature of California’s Silicon Valley, where companies use extra perks to attract top employees, more are expected to follow suit, experts said. The search engine decided it was only fair to bump up the salaries of its gay staff, a spokesman said.
Under U.S. law, when a firm offers health insurance as a benefit for an employee’s partner, it is tax-free for married couples but taxable income for gays.
Google will make up the difference in additional pay for U.S. workers – on average £650 a year.
The move is being backdated to January 1.
How many of the 20,600 employees will benefit is unclear, but Google’s internal gay group has 700 members.
The firm will also speed up infertility benefits for lesbian and homosexual staff and include their partners in its compassionate leave policy.
How many of Google’s 20,600 employees will be affected by the changes is unclear, but the company’s internal gay group — who call themselves Gayglers — counts around 700 members.

The measures only apply to the workforce in the U.S.
Personnel chief Laszlo Bock, Google’s ‘vice president for people operations,’ said the firm decided to act when an employee pointed out the disparity.
'We said, "You’re right, that doesn’t seem fair,"' he said. He declined to reveal how much the changes will cost Google, which made profits of £4 billion last year.
The company is renowned for its innovative streak, and others usually follow its lead.
'It could have a ripple effect. When you have a high-profile company doing anything, that tends to get into the mind of the culture, and it can have a more diffuse effect,' said corporate benefits consultant Kathleen Murray.
But Google has also earned a sinister reputation thanks to blunders by its controversial Street View service, which has sent ‘camera cars’ to take pictures along every road in Britain.
On Wednesday Claire Rowlands, 25, told how she was stunned to see a photograph of her three-year-old son Louis naked on Street View.
He had been snapped as he played in his grandmother's garden in Walkden, Greater Manchester.
Google blurred out the registration plate of a car on the drive of the house – but the image of Louis, who was wearing nothing but his shoes, was uncensored.

Re: Google pays homers and Lesbos more than heterosexuals

This is outrageous!

I want to speak to a lawyer RIGHT NOW.

There must be SOME way to make sexual preference a protected class, but do it without actually extending that protection to homosexuals, so that we can sue Google for doing this but homos can't sue every other GOD fearing business in America who refuses to hire them for being queer.

There must be some way to do that. Otherwise, how can we protect ourselves against homer special privileges?

Re: Google pays people to be queer.

This program is called "pay to become gay".

The idea is that once people begin seeing that you can earn more money by being gay, a lot more people will make the jump. At first it will be mostly poor people, but sooner or later, the entire middle class will jump into the gay love boat as well.

Just chip off some morals here, a little there...... and before you know it, the gay deathstyle is a mainstream way of life. In Europe, one our of three people is already gay.

And then Jesus Christ will come back...... and He will see mass orgies, even worse than in Sodom and Gomorrah.

Should we really be surprised if He exclaims "did I die for this shit!?!?!"

Re: Google pays people to be queer.

I still think homosexuals should be killed! (No joke) I sincerely hate them.

Leviticus 18:22
Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

1st Peter 2:13-17 and Romans 13:1-7 require us to follow secular laws which for some reason forbid the killing of gays. So we try to cure them instead. We have several cured gays in our Church.

Affirmitive action? No sane Republican invented that!

Re: Google pays people to be queer.

THIS IS INSANE! It's also the final straw! From now on, I'm going to use Bing to do all my googling! :furious:
