A libertarian is someone who wants to take America back to the way it was run in the 1800s, regardless of how much the world has changed since then. Libertarians also have mean hard-ons for unregulated capitalism, believing that the "Invisible Hand" will erase poverty and create a utopia instead of what ACTUALLY happens when you let companies do whatever they want, which is:
-Children working in factories and mines
-Corporate monopolies
-Workplaces where death is likely
-Low, low wages
-Shit in your food (Read Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle")
-Even more extreme corporate corruption and political pawns than we have now.
-Getting the living fuck stomped out of you by company-hired goons for trying to organize a union (Battle of the Overpass)

1. Someone who thinks Somalia is a nice place to live.
2. One who thinks Ayn Rand is a good writer and isn't crazy.
3. Delves into the archives of history to base an ideology off of Industrial Age Europe in much the same way conservatives do medieval England.
4. One who thinks the free market should decide whether or not it's okay to force your children to work in African mines doing backbreaking labor, inhaling toxic fumes and whatnot for eight cents an hour.

Libertarians are a bunch of failed Reagan-era Republicans and Conservatives who despise the poor and working classes while constantly praising the ground that the so-called "free market" walks on.
At their best, they're conservatives, at their worst, they're anarcho-capitalists who want to see the poor suffer and eventually die off.
Libertarians constantly praise the free market and seem to believe that companies are somehow incapable of any form of wrongdoing and that everybody should go to them for help.
They want to privatize everything from law enforcement (mercenary police) to even national defense (private armies). They also want to dispose of any and all forms of social welfare, an action that will kill many people, make many more homeless, and leave countless without any form of health insurance.
They want to see society return to its original tribalist form, where no civilization existed and there were no forms of organization, basically turning back the clock on human social progression.

In the classical sense an individual who favors liberty either in the service of society against tyranny or because the state has no compelling interest in certain behaviors.
In the contemporary sense, A stupid high school white boy who lives off if his parents and has never had anything bad happen to him.

A person who believes there should be no government at all because they don't want to pay taxes. In order to support this view libertarians insist the government is completely corrupt and incapable while they use demonizing tactics against those who use or who are likely to use government programs intended to combat starvation and poverty, usually the poor and disabled. However, it's impossible to find a libertarian who will refuse government aid when they themselves become poor or disabled. This is because libertarians understand they are due reparations for the theft of their tax dollars, as is spelled out in the sacred governmental domination instruction manual known as the Constitution.

A Republican with a bong.
Libertarians think they should be able to do as they please, including ignoring our human responsibility to help each other.

one who believes the only purpose of government is to protect the rights of its citizens, those rights being life, liberty and property
