Californias Gay Marriage laws:

I'm new here and this is my first post/Question.
Living in California, I was just wondering, since our Governor has desided that we are not to have equal rights in this matter, why must we still pay taxes to help our Schools and education? Why if we are not Equal, are we expected to Equally pay for such things here in this state? Why should the laws of the State of California Be forced on us when we are already forced to be considered Second Class Citizens with no Equal Rights? I hope someone can answer this for me. I think we need to have real government again, I wish we had a President again, I remember when we use to have one. it was much different then. (I say this sarcastically but am serious in the big picture)
