We replaced a patchwork of laws with a declaration that legitimacy doesn’t matter. Around the same time, we ushered in no fault divorce with very strong bias towards mother custody, while leaving in place the punitive practices of child support and alimony.........

Exactly and extremely correct. And I might add that the removal of the State from marriage has led directly to the Welfare State we are now mired in. Replacing the father with a welfare check is a libertarian nightmare come true.

That's not a libertarian idea. That's a socialist-statist idea.
