Why would you call those people "true" libertarians? There are a lot of people who consider themselves libertarians of various sorts who strongly disagree with this. Some consider property to be theft.
There are many kinds of libertarianism, and the American-style extreme capitalist libertarianism is not the only one, and probably one of the most irrational forms of libertarianism.
Personally, I feel providing essential care to everybody equally does the most to free people from oppression and extortion by those who wield power over them at a time when they're vulnerable.
