You picked a bad example with abortion because of the complexity of the issue and the fact that from a certain point of view a life is involved.  Given the libertarian view on secession, you have to admit that libertarians have a similar view on the solution as you do.  Pity the liberals and progressives will not accept such a solution.  Ironically, the red necks would be perfectly happy with your solution.  There lies the difference between the red necks and the left.

A life is at stake either way due to if it is banned a woman who is desperate to have the abortion will find other methods like underground methods or knitting needle. I am sure you are aware how dangerous that is. It is just what will happen unfortunately. Cannot stop that. But can make it safer methods and even preventative methods.

Either way a life is at risk. So I do not think it was a bad example. As for culturally concerned conservatives being happy with the solution I will have to believe that to see it. One on one basis too. Aaaanyway time for kiwis to hop to bed. Will be back in a few hours to see how this conversation has progressed. Interesting topic.

This is why libertarians on the whole tend not to want to impose a solution from above the way liberals and progressives do.  With the degree of centralization that exists in the US there is a tendency to use the Federal Government as a club to beat opponents over the head with.  You haven't really spent much time around the red necks in the US and the mainstream media is less than reliable.
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. -- H.L. Mencken

If one rejects laissez faire on account of man's fallibility and moral weakness, one must for the same reason also reject every kind of government action.   -- Ludwig von Mises
