Libertarianism: Pro-Life Philosophy, Pro-Abortion Movement

Libertarianism: Pro-Life Philosophy, Pro-Abortion Movement | LifeNews.com: To mark the 39th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, leading libertarian magazine Reason has posted a small yet diverse sampling of competing libertarian perspectives on abortion, concluding with a short video in which Reason editors Matt Welch and Nick Gillespie ask, “what’s the libertarian position on abortion?”

They conclude that there isn’t any one correct libertarian answer to the issue, but they definitely leave the impression that libertarianism would leave abortion just the way it is. Both express their personal support for keeping abortion legal, and Welch claims that only around “30% of self-identified libertarians are also strongly pro-life or anti-abortion.”
