That is all well & good, but to achieve that you would have to convert all the junkies in the USA to Libertarians that wouldn't burglarize homes or shoplift, etc. to support their habit...then overdose/die with individual sovereignty by themselves w/o calling a ambulance or going to the ER. Which leads me to the 2nd requirement of "individual sovereignty"...the government would have to exit the medical/medical insurance business (no Medicaid or Medicare or ACA/"Obamacare"). i.e. "the government pays the bills, the govt. makes the rules"....helmet laws, seatbelt laws, etc., etc..
Well, I didn't say that it would be consequence-free!
Every freedom has costs! Even Freedom of Speech is associated with certain trade-offs!
The real question is: Do you believe that you have a God-given (i.e., "inherent" and "inalienable") right to decide what is done to your own body? Or, conversely, do you believe that the "Nanny State" should instead be entrusted with determining "what is good for you?"
And where do you draw the line?
