Libertarians are Non-Interventionalists

It is always hard to pigeon-hole any individual into a political ideology but many who describe libertarians complicate libertarianism beyond what is necessary.

A person that is both Economic and Social Conservative is usually a Republican. The Republican's major downside is that they will use the power of government to prevent another individual from hurting themselves, whether or not that person feels they are hurting themselves.

A person that is both Economic and Social Liberal is usually a Democrat. The Democrat's major downside is that they will use the power of government to help another individual that they feel cannot take care of themselves, whether or not that person has asked for help.

A person that is an Economic Conservative and a Social Liberal is usually a libertarian. The libertarian feels that individuals should be left alone to make their own decisions and take the consequences for those decisions unless that person asks for help or that person hurts another and only then should the government intervene.

As a society, we should promote libertarian ideology of this definition because it is non-interventional in nature and creates the least amount of friction in the society. Less social friction will always lead to more prosperity and less crime.
