> Where does that view go on the right/left spectrum?

Its a not-uncommon libertarian view that's probably more common the farther right you go (but you'll also find some left-libertarians who believe it; heck, you'll find left-libertarians that are almost completely opposed to the existence of the state as such)

"left", "right", and "libertarian" are all pretty broad groups within which there is lots of individual variation.
