I know exactly what I’m talking about. Liberals believe they are “do-gooders”. The whole “bleeding heart” insult is meant to mock this point of view. Liberals, at least the American variety, believe in authoritarian measures to force certain actions out of society. Libertarians believe in the opposite - the allowance of any action that does not infringe on the rights of others, and no action required by government.

So, you are saying that liberals generally OPPOSE prostitution, illegal drugs, pornography, abortion and euthanasia?

It seems that like most other libertarians you adopt a defensive state of denial when it is demonstrated how closely your views correspond with liberalism.
