By “public good” I mean a good that everyone wants but mot get or get efficiently through voluntary arrangements and that, for its realization, thus requires coercive coordination from the state—typically to circumvent “free riders”—so that each person gets what she or he wants. Examples of such public goods are national defense, water purification, and equal opportunity. In this paper I do not use the term “public health” to pick out a public good in this technical sense, but use it only in an operational, non‐normative. adjectival sense to designate people, actions. institutions, and the like that are typically referred to in ordinary English usage as elements of the public health community and its behavior.

When the implementation of the Illinois testing law proved socially un wieldy, its hate sponsor claimed that “the cost of implementing the law was not a consideration in mating it”; Prenuptial AIDS screening a strain in Illinois, New York Times, January 26, 1988: 1. See also Illinois backs AIDS tracing, New York Times, July 1, 1987: 9; Veto of AIDS bills urged in Illinois. New York Times, July 7, 1987: 11. Illinois was the first state to have its legislature pass mandatory marital AIDS‐antibody testing. Between the passage of the bill and its signing by Illinois' governor several months later, Louisiana's legislature passed and its governor signed such legislation; the bills in both states went into effect on January 1, 1988. Broad laws on AIDS signed in Illinois, New York Times, September 22, 1987: 15; AIDS bills focus on education, Chicago Tribune, September 22, 1987: 1.

Mary Douglas explains: “[T]he thought style [of a society] sets the pm condition of any cognition, and determines what can be counted as a reasonable question and a true or false answer. It provides the context and sets the limits for any judgment about objective reality. In essential feature is to be hidden from the members of the thought collective.” Douglas, supra note 13 at 13.

See, for example, Singer v. Ham, 522 P.2d 1187, 1194–95 (1974). in which Washington's supreme court held that the requirement that men many one but not the other gender was not a requirement that triggered a state constitutional bar on distinctions made with respect to gender. See also Adams v. Howerton, 486 F. Supp. 1119, 1124–25 (C.D. Cal. 1980), in which the court claimed that even if gays did have a fundamental right to marry, a bar on gays marrying would still be upheld because necessary to a compelling state interest.

Ratchford v. Gay Lib, 434 U.S. 1080, 1082 (1978). Though the genre of dissent from a denial of certiorari requires Rehnquist to have stated the position as a hypothetical, his immediately preceding discussion of the facts of the case makes it clear that he does indeed accept the hypothesis as true.

See, for example, Meyer v. Nebraska, 262 US. 390, 399–401 (1923) (giving parents a constitutional right of substantive due process to have their children taught German); Pierce v. Society of Sisters. 268 U.S. 510, 534–35 (1925) (substantive due process used to strike down a law requiring parent to send their children to public schools); and MOOR v. City of East Cleveland, 431 US. 494 (1977) (substantive due process used to void a zoning ordinance barring grandchildren from living with heir grandparent). Moore provided the constitutional standard that was used in Bowers, 106 S. Ct. at 2844, to claim basically that gays have no place in the constitutional scheme of the United States: “Our decisions establish that the Constitution protects the sanctity of the family precisely because the institution of the family is deeply rooted in this Nation's history and tradition. It is through the family that we inculcate and pass down many of our most cherished values, moral and cultural.”Moore, at 503–4, footnotes omitted.
