Should it be the government's responsibility to provide security to it's citizens in the form of the military, and federal and local law enforcement?

What about fire protection? Should the government provide that or should we all pay a premium to a for profit fire department and if you don't have coverage then your house burns down?

What about education? Should all elementary schools charge tuition and if you can't afford it then your kids don't get an education?

Maybe all of the roads in the country should be privately owned toll roads, and if you can't pay the toll then you can't drive.

Where do you draw the line on your libertarianism?
