As a liberal I can agree with libertarians on some social issues. Libertarians, at least true libertarians, would not want government telling women what to do with their bodies. Libertarians also tend to see the nonsense that is the war on drugs, particularly when it comes to marijuana.

I believe a fundamentalist libertarian worldview is untenable on a hot and crowded planet of 7 billion people.
