Imho it would lead quickly to citizen revolt once most of the govt that actually helped the people went away.
How would libertarians handle that?
a REAL libertarian?
well
first
pot would be legalized, regulated and taxed!
which woud piss off MOST conservatives and SOME of the leftwing
then prostitution would be legalized, regulated and taxed
which would piss off MOST of the conservatives (even though they are MORE LIKELY to UTILIZE the services of prostitutes)
then they would legalize gay marriage
which would piss off MOST of the conservatives
and then remove "under god" from our pledge
which would REALLY piss off MOST conservatives
and offically declare America a secular nation
which would TOTALLY piss off ALL conservatives
and then glenn beck and every deranged hate radio dj and conservative spinmeister in the country would start a propaganda hate campaign against that so-called libertarian president
and say that he was REALLY a LEFTWING SOCIALIST and a TERRORIST lover who HATES christians and god wants to destroy our traditional family values and take ALL of our RIGHTS away and how do we know he is an American citizen anyway where is his REAL birth certificate that's what I want to know!
which would cause conservatives to load all their guns
and put on their white robes
with the hoods
and join anti-government militia groups
and threaten everyone to the left of ann coulter with physical violence
which would be ignored by ALL police and the ENTIRE military
no doubt a revolution wouild ensue because even though conservatives are always calling OTHER PEOPLE "freedom haters" the truth is they REALLY REALLY hate the idea of OTHER PEOPLE "getting away with something"
As for legalizing gay marriage, a real libertarian would realize that religions are private institutions and should have the final say about what they do or do not consider marriage.
There's Muslim fundies and extremists EVERYWHERE...where do we stop? Do we wage war on most of or even the entire Middle East?! Do we set even more draconian restrictions upon the American people?! After all, there ARE Muslim extremists living in our midst.So.. If another country is killing itself we have no obligation as part of NATO and our Military to intervene and take him out?
We shouldn't be in NATO, and no we should not intervene. We can't stop all the evil in the world, and most of the time we end up causing more problems than we solve.
“[America] goes not abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She is the champion and vindicator only of her own.” - John Quincy Adams
We should be part of NATO. We should be keeping our Alliances strong. Who knows if another Dictator decides to invade another country?
That's in the 1700's.. We are in 2010.. We're at War and have Muslim Extremists trying to kill us all..
This is the only issue that i don't agree with the Libertarian Party.. Other than that i'm a Conservative Libertarian..
And who gets to judge the good and the bad programs?Libertarians don't Believe in ALL Government or Programs to be gone.
We just realize there are a lot of Programs out there that do more harm than good and are wasting Tax Payer money.
Meaning..
If there is a Tyrannical Leader killing its own people are we gonna stand back or act?
Non-interventionism means we handle our affairs. We can't be the policemen of the world.
So.. If another country is killing itself we have no obligation as a Superpower in the world to take him out?

I am not sure where it was defined in libertarianism to be absolute or unbending or uncaring.
Caring For People
The Libertarian way is a caring, people-centered approach to politics. We believe each individual is unique. We want a system which respects the individual and encourages us to discover the best within ourselves and develop our full potential
Each individual has the right to control his or her own body, action, speech, and property. Government's only role is to help individuals defend themselves from force and fraud.
Imho it would lead quickly to citizen revolt once most of the govt that actually helped the people went away.

I'm all for Legalizing Pot.
But not Prostitution. It leads to Sex Trafficking.

Actually, a real Libertarian would have a real solution and not have their head stuck up Ron Paul's Religious ass on the subject.

No, we don't, not unless you have found a money tree that will grow an endless number of dollar bills because in case you haven't noticed, we're broke and we can't afford to be warmongering around the world anymore.
