Perhaps you don't care what your tax dollars are spent on, but I do happen to care in regard to mine.

Since social policy is an ever-changing thing, and pretty much set by what is and is not accepted by society and not some arbitrary line in the sand drawn by some egghead, what exactly is there to set?

If the threat of AIDS and other STDs isn't enough to set social policy for our oversexed society, the individuals that make up that society will pay the consequences for their choices.

I personally have never had a piece of ass so good I was willing to play Russian roulette with my life over it. But if you have, power to you. Enjoy.
