[Vision2020] Are you REALLY a libertarian?

My opposition to libertarianism stems from my adherence to social contract theory. We agree to uphold the laws of a particular society in exchange for security. And vice versa: no security, no adherence to the law. 

Social programs are justified from a purely pragmatic point of view. Thus, libertarianism is false.
