Libertarianism as in free markets and the inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It includes the rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights.
Note that this precludes any right to harm others, defraud them, enslave them, etc. It precludes enshrining religion into the law.
It includes all are equal under the law, women have an equal right to vote, gays can marry, people can smoke marijuana, etc.
As with all philosophies, it doesn't give guidance to all situations, and should be leavened with pragmatism.
Presumably you mean political ideology, but I don't really know if I know what "libertarianism" actually means. I would need some citation that the Ayn-Rand-esque objectivist flavor of libertarianism has actually done any good for anyone. Maybe that's not what you mean, but that's sort of the issue with the term.
I might be more likely to agree if you changed the term "libertarianism" to "liberalism". Not the current "liberal" that basically means "democrat" in the US, but the more classical sense.
