You say that and then you vote against policies that would actually give people these rights, because too much "government overreach". Libertarians have a tendency to just trust that people will do the right thing, which is a very immature and naïve way of seeing the world. If Libertarianism actually worked, then we wouldn't have Billionaires because they would be using those money for the betterment of humankind. But it'll never work because people are inherently greedy and selfish. Which is why we need government policies that force the world's elite to put their money to good use.
Billionaires got that way because of housing lobbyists to lobby the government. You think Windows would be so dominant if Microsoft didn't go out of their way to put it into public schools? You think Walmart would be everywhere without government subsidies?
No, I don't trust people to do the right thing, especially people in government.
