    Libertarians want all the benefits of libertarianism AND socialism, but they don’t want to pay for any of it.

    That’s it. That’s the entirety of the political belief.

      Libertarians want freedom from government force. They want to be able to fund healthcare by choice. They want the freedom to not have taxes being used to send weapons oversees. Libertarians are for social and economic freedom.
