Yeah, 100% Socialists, 0% Libertarian. The minute a Libertarian advocates for a good idea, they cease being Libertarian.
So do you entirely disagree with things like the free market and personal liberties? That's why I like libertarianism - I basically want the government interfering with my life as little as possible. There are definitely times for government intervention (for example, creating the institutional arrangements to structure a proper free market), but governments are so corrupt and inefficient in general that I'd rather let corporations do many functions. Privatization typically has the effect of lowering costs when done right. It's why I like markets.
