But don't police someone else's actions "for thier own good". That is a government we DON'T want.

Not for "their own good," fellow, for the general societal good. People don't have the "freedom" to transmit deadly STDs, they don't have the right to father children they won't support, they don't have the right to clog up the courts with their failed marriages. See, regardless of what I believe is moral, I'm asked to pay for the consequences of all those "free choices." And I don't want to. I'd rather say you don't have the right to "choose" to saddle me with the social costs of your "choices."
