: If one group of people prefers government control
and management of people's lives, and another prefers
 liberty and a desire to be left alone,

The good news is that the Supreme Court decision
getting government out of the American bedroom is
right in line with rejection of government control and
management of people's lives.  There is no need to
secede, Texas is where she needs to be.

The bad news is that too many conservatives
disagree with this.

It establishes the federal government's right to say what is allowed, which it has no power to do. It reenforces the intrusion of big brother rather than eliminate it. It just says that it must be the biggest brother rather than the next biggest. The tenth amendment says that the rights not enumerated are left to the states or the people. These rights were not enumerated so they are left to the states or the people whether they use them well or not.
