I am not a Libertarian politically, but I am very much a libertarian in practice.

Libertarianism is a necessity in a prosperous society even if just for purely practical reasons. I have never used drugs and rarely consume alcohol, but I consider myself a libertarian in these matters for the simple reason that it is highly impractical for a government to control what its citizens ingest into their own bodies. The political principle that says people should be allowed to get strung out on heroin is the same one that says nobody should ever be forced by the government to get a COVID “vaccine” for any reason.

And lest anyone suggest I’m perfectly fine with strung-out heroin addicts all over the streets of my town … I also believe drug abuse would be practically non-existent in a truly libertarian system of governance where people are forced to deal with the consequences of their own actions.

The perfect setup is a mix between the bible and Libertarianism (maybe there is no difference)

2 Thessalonians 3:10 - ‘for even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: if a man will not work, he shall not eat.’

It’s going to be pretty hard to work while you are bent over at the waist on fentanyl.
