The government should have no right to prevent any organizations of consenting adults, so long as there is no force, fraud or coercion involved. If 10,000 people want to have a mega group marriage they can do so as far as I'm concerned.

Russian history has me disagreeing here. Specifically where communism took over after ousting the parliamentary pseudo-government. There was a horrid civil war over it. A two party system would never have worked under communism (as it appeared in Russia). Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam

By what right do you prevent it?

It doesn't make a lot of sense to allow organization of the people along lines where they feel empowered or worse: entitled. Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam

Empowering people is fine, we should strive to empower more people, particularly minorities. Entitled, now that's a different story. When people feel they deserve something without earning it, well that's not okay.

After that, it is no longer 'fine'. I agree about entitlement, hence my view on it
