Serious question:
What happens the first time an 80 year old widower with an estate of, let's say, $50 million, decides to marry his 50 year old son in order to bypass estate taxes?
No sex is involved, just money.
I suspect that, as a practical matter, what the SCOTUS just did was NOT define marriage anew, but rather they said you cannot restrict marriage to one man and one woman. There is now absolutely no rational basis to oppose the marriage of a rich old dude and his son for whatever reason they want to marry.
