Please, the "libertarian" you have no use for has a political philosophy that would protect and defend your right to live morally. It is precisely because of the lack of libertarian principle that the government forces Americans to support and nourish immorality -- sloth, promiscuity, envy, covetousness, homosexuality. Roe v Wade wouldn't exist if the Federal government followed libertarian principle, and Reagan himself SAID that libertarianism is at the core of conservatism.

America's moral decline is in large part DIRECTLY linked to government presuming to "manage" individual morality, from charity (via welfare that ends up funding sloth and promiscuity) to homosexual "rights" (via anti-discrimination laws that force others to accommodate open homosexuality and punish those who exercise their God-given right to tell open homosexuality to go somewhere else), to meddlesome minimum wage laws that dictate a "moral" wage and cripple the early stages of work ethic development and teen employment, simultaneously created a huge magnet for illegal workers in whose home countries our low-skilled labor minimum wage is enough to support a family.

Conservatives like you had BETTER understand that libertarianism is the path to living morally because it PREVENTS government from prohibiting YOU from living morally.

“Conservatives like you had BETTER understand that libertarianism is the path to living morally because it PREVENTS government from prohibiting YOU from living morally.”

True Libertarianism would ALSO PROHIBIT me from putting morality into law....that IS A BIG PROBLEM. If I cannot forbid open homosexuality, drugs, etc. I DO NOT CALL THAT FREEDOM. I call it anarchy and a worthless society. I have NEVER agreed with a libertarian viewpoint that things like prostitution and pornography, etc. are “victimless” crimes.

In a “Libertarian” world I (my children and their children) would have to see and be exposed to open unimpeded vice of all kinds.....NO THANK YOU! The slime readily available on the internet is testament to that. In a “Libertarian” world it would be on every street corner and I could do nothing to stop it by law.

Libertarianism IS NOT the path to a moral society. Of course, excessive government is not either.

I want a Puritan America, not a decadent red light Europe.

That is absurd. The Roe decision was based upon a “right to privacy” that fits right into the Libertarian playbook and outlook on things.
