Reply #72: the state of Nevada already screens for STDs in its licensed prostitutes.

and that is as it should be. so your point falls.

and don't try to slippery slope this. there's some real weaknesses in the american political libertarian philosophy. it doesn't work because it has been tried in the feudal model -- really it is just another code word for the advance of feudalism. several other posters here pointed out how american political libertarianism is now a joke and been hijacked by 'anarchocapitalists.' whatever they want to call it the pill being sold has been taken before and historically has been a nightmare for millions involved.

edit: also the sex clubs here (SF) are mandated by city ordinance to provide a sanitary environment, lots of latex gloves, dental dams, condoms, and lubrication. so again, state got involved and helps the spread of disease. so again your point fails.

now if you are trying to talk about individuals in the bedroom of a private residence (which is so slippery sloping this argument) then all that has to be asked is the morality of the situation. caveat emptor should not play a part in such relations, the people you have sex with should come clean if they are infected and if not they are morally liable -- as also been noted in several law cases. so again your point fails.

notice the "me, me, me" pattern yet and how it should be curtailed?
