I know exactly what Libertarianism is: Freedom through less taxes paid(Financial freedom.), which is the same as freedom for the wealthy only.
Cutting government programs, education, healthcare, welfare, leaves the ones who aren't well-off to die and at the mercy of the rich. Financial freedom at the expense of social freedom. Sure, some poor people with exceptional drive will still have a chance to rise and prosper, but what about the rest of them? They'll be left to rot.
If it's anything else, then it's not Libertarianism, Conservatism, perhaps, but not Libertarianism. Libertarianism wants government to barely do anything but keep a system of laws in place, maintain the police force and maintain the army.
And I find it hilarious that a Libertarian(I suspect you are one, apologies if you ar enot.) would be opposed to the wealthy few running the world.
