You are mistaking libertarianism for enforced anarcho-capitalism. You can be a capitalist, social democrat, communist, socialist or anarcho-capitalist under a libertarian system just so long as you don't force anyone else to comply. Sorry you felt compelled to type so much, though it is a good criticism of anarcho-capitalism and your opinion on personal liberty is compliant with libertarian opinion, you could be described as a "left libertarian". Also recognise that libertarians are a legitimate party amongst the others that are not either republican or democrat, they do not call for a ridiculous revolution but a methodical evolution beginning by solving obvious problems first and allowing lengthy debate, mass media and referendums before enacting controversial policies.
Law enforcement, the military and state services which the libertarian government is allowing to continue temporarily while it develops a consensus on how to privatise it are the only institutions people must pay for. Liberty is preserved through justice and the law can only be agreed apon through heterarchy (representative government) otherwise you will either have tyranny or anarchy, because libertarians are sensible and realise the world isn't perfect they accept that such tax must be paid. Many of the problems you have outlined do not have to be solved through the statist practices used by reps and dems or typical major parties from other countries.. Libertarians view social justice and regulation differently....
