The US didn’t have drug prohibition laws for most of its history—low and behold, society didn’t collapse.

I’m not sure what the Founders thought about abortion, but I’m interested now, so I’m going to research it a bit; I do know that the Constitution technically says nothing about abortion.

Not sure what opinions they had on gay marriage either, but I imagine they wouldn’t have endorsed this.

You do realize that one can be Libertarian and not be for gay marriage, abortion, etc., right?

I have my personal morals, but I don’t really want the government enforcing my morality as I suspect this would invariably lead to many unintended consequences.

“You do realize that one can be Libertarian and not be for gay marriage, abortion, etc., right?”

I do, that is why I’m asking the pro-drug, pro-gay marriage crowd and pro-abort crowd to decide what is more important - these three planks, or libertarianism.

Unsurprisingly, most are more devoted to these three planks than they are to libertarians.
