'''Social Libertarianism''', clipped to '''SocBert''', is a civically libertarian, economically variable (ranges from [[File:CLeft.png]] Center-Left to [[File:Cright.png]] Center-Right) ideology that leans culturally left. It advocates for a robust decentralized government and social welfare. SocBert believes that both
Furthermore, most SocBerts are against [[File:Necon.png]] [[Neoconservatism|foreign intervention]]. However, that isn’t always true, with [[File:Yang2020.png]] [[Technoliberalism|Andrew Yang]] advocating for interventionists like [[File:Christie.png]] [[Neoconservatism|Chris Christie]] or [[File:Dean Phillips.png]] [[Technoliberalism|Dean Phillips]].
==Beliefs==
Social libertarianism is a political philosophy that endorses individual liberties, limited government, and a social market economy through culturally progressive reforms and decentralization. It is considered center-left
Core tenants of Social Libertarianism include:
=== [[File:Soccap.png]] [[Social Capitalism|Social-Market Economy & Welfare]] [[File:Welf.png]] ===
Social Libertarians would ideally be inclined to use a Social-Market economic system which combines a free-market capitalist economic system alongside social policies and enough regulation to establish both fair competition within the market and generally a welfare state. Furthermore, this economic system would allow things such as [[File:Property.png]] [[Propertarianism|private property]], [[File:Globcap.png]] [[Globalism|free trade]], [[File:Markets.png]] [[Capitalism|free market]], [[File:Marketeconomy.png]] [[Accelerationism|market competition]], mild to moderate [[File:Regulationism.png]] [[Regulationism|economic interventionism]], and a [[File:Welf.png]] [[Welfarism|welfare state]]. Most Social Libertarians agree that a suitable method to fund the welfare state would be Land Value Taxation , Government revenues from public enterprises and even in some instances Value Added Taxation.
The most well known welfare policies that Social Libertarians all advocate for is [[File:UBI.png]] universal basic income or a [[File:NIT.png]] negative income tax, however some more left-leaning variants would advocate for a more robust system intertwining Single Payer Healthcare or Universal Catastrophic Coverage, Free Public Education and in some instances paid-for social housing. The aim of the Welfare state or social-safety nets is not to subsidise complacency as most Libertarians would put it, but to ensure everyone has an equal starting line when participating in the competitive free market which is prone to contain inequalities and dominion over the individual which violates a person's individual liberty and disallows fair competition.
=== [[File:LibFoundation.png]] [[Civil Libertarianism|Individual Liberty]] [[File:Civlibert.png]] ===
Social Libertarians believe that Negative liberty and Positive liberty are equally important or Real Freedom is important; through this philosophy an ideal Social Libertarian government should provide basic necessities to guard people from domination whether that would be from Poverty or damages to the Environment. This would be done through implementing regulations which would prevent corporations from violating a persons liberty and protecting them from unfair domination, however regulations which if were not present would not violate a persons individual liberty are deemed unnecessary.
=== [[File:Decentral.png]] [[Federalism|Decentralisation]] [[File:Fed.png]] ===
As in the name, Social Libertarians advocate for a decentralised small government which minimally interferes or does not at all interfere with the lives of a person outside of welfare and social safety nets. Furthermore Social Libertarians support [[File:Directdem.png]] [[Democracy#Direct_Democracy|Direct Democracy]] or in some instances [[File:Semidirect.png]] [[Democracy#Semi-Direct_Democracy|Semi-Direct Democracy]], this system maximises freedoms & liberties whilst keeping state power and bureaucracy to a minimal. Most Social Libertarians argue that an ideal Social Libertarian government would be closely structured to the [[File:Helv.png]] [[Helvetic Model]]

Line 233 ⟶ 228:
*[[File:HumanisticCapitalism.png]] '''Human-Centred Capitalism''' is a reformed version of [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism]] which is geared towards maximising human well-being and fulfillment, instead of corporate profits. It also would replace several traditional economic metrics with an "American Scorecard".
*Yang is well-known for his advocacy for '''Universal Basic Income (UBI)'''. His most famous policy is '''Freedom Dividend''', a $1,000-per-month UBI that is given to all US citizens aged 18 or older regardless of employment status, to help fight off job displacement from automation.
*In addition to UBI and human-centered capitalism, '''single-payer healthcare (Medicare for All)''' was a fundamental aspect of Yang's platform. Furthermore, he also added that he would "would keep the option of private insurance" as his goal was to "demonstrate to the American people that private insurance is not what [they] need" and that Medicare for All is "superior to [their] current insurance."
*Yang was opposed to making public colleges tuition-free, but did support investing in community colleges to drastically reduce their tuition and Student Loan forgiveness.
*However a slight deviation from common Social Libertarian ideas, Yang was known to support some forms of [[File:Necon.png]] [[Neoconservatism|foreign intervention]] such as combatting Russian Expansionism, however he favored more diplomatic approaches to solutions.
===[[File:LibSocDemIcon.png]] '''[[Social Democracy|Libertarian Social Democracy]]'''===
'''Libertarian Social Democracy''', sometimes referred to as '''Left-Leaning Social Libertarianism''' is an economically center to center-left and civically libertarian ideology which is often erroneously called "Moderate Social Democracy". It constitutes of take the general principles of Social Libertarianism such as welfare, civil liberties & social-market economics and amplify them, often advocating for a more developed welfare state and robust selection of social safety nets. As all Social Libertarians they advocate for UBI or NIT however they also propose M4A, paid parental leave and childcare to expand the scope of the already robust welfare state all under a Libertarian government of no interference with the individual, some regulations and some taxation such as LVT or even in some instances, Progressive or Flat taxation. Moreover, they are known to support non-interventionist foreign policies and typically gravitate towards supporting general Social Democratic policies. Despite being described to be "statist" by more Right-Leaning Social Libertarians, they still constitute as a variant of Social Libertarianism due to their staunch commitment to a non-interfering libertarian government; something that Social Democracy does not follow.
===[[File:Libertarian Paternalism.png]] {{PCBA|Libertarian Paternalism}}===▼
'''Libertarian Paternalism''', or '''LibPat''', is a [[File:Libunity-yellow.png]] Libertarian ideology that revolves around the belief that private and public institutions should be able to influence choices and behavior, while still respecting freedom of choice.
