Social Libertarianism: Difference between revisions

'''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 Negative liberty (i.e. freedom to do stuff) and Positive liberty (i.e. freedom from forces such as poverty, bad health, and pollution) are equally important or [[w:Real freedom|realReal Freedomfreedom]] (i.e. negative freedom with possess the resources or capacities actually to carry out their will) is important and therefore libertarian ideology should be reformed to view liberty & justice as being free from all forms of domination instead of only freedom from the state. Socbert tends to agree with libertarianism on most issues, but disagrees on economics and welfare, believing that a welfare state (ideally through [[File:UBI.png]] universal basic income or a [[File:NIT.png]] negative income tax) and some forms of regulation are needed to guarantee positive liberties. Social Libertarians either support regular [[File:Socdem.png]] [[Social Democracy|social democratic]] economic polices ([[File:LibSocDemIcon.png]] Libertarian Social Democracy) or [[File:Soccap.png]] [[Social Capitalism|social capitalism]] ([[File:Yang2020.png]] Yangism), depending on which variant.
