Efficency
Efficiency is all about getting something done the fastest with the least amount of energy. I think it would be simple to find efficient outcomes to gay marriage and science curriculum's. Holding votes would be the most efficient. However, I do think that allowing people to interpret the law and what defines progress is a bit backwards. If during the civil rights era we held elections to decide whether or not to integrate schools, it wouldn't have happened or at least take much longer. I think it is necessary to push society in a positive direction sometimes.

Good point on civil rights. The logic of the market has its drawbacks. Pick one issue pertaining to church and state and think about the costs and benefits.
