That's why I can't stand the cocksuckers.
Your understanding of libertarianism wouldn't fill a thimble, so I don't give your opinion on the topic any more weight than it deserves.

The only difference in the second sentence is the variance between what each wants to hoard; i.e., how greed is defined.
The difference is that the libertarians, like the Koch brothers are not "in" government. They stand on the side buying politicians who will fill their agenda. In a normal society this would be called bribery and both the briber and bribee would be in jail. Its naive to equate what is going on in the post Citizens United world with the paltry bribery which went on before. We are now at the mercy of the oligarchs.
You think the Koch brothers are still libertarians? Can you name one 'libertarian' candidate they've contributed to who was actually in the LP? If they cared about libertarianism, they're plenty rich enough to throw a few million to the LP and give them enough operating funds to actually win an election or two. Is it the new thing to call Republicans, libertarians? The main difference between Republicans and libertarians is being strong on civil liberties. Have the Koch brothers impressed you with their stances on ending the War on Drugs, legalizing gay marriage, or separation of church and state?
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
