not just rights. In a libertarian society, you would have a lot less regulation. BUT - you would have a lot MORE responsibility, both to provide for yourself and your family, and to clean up any problems you cause to others, whether you are an individual, or a giant corporation like BP. And you (meaning all citizens) would be expected (and reinforced by peer pressure, not government) to help others through charities much more than through taxes - kind of like it was back in my childhood.
When I was a kid and my (single) dad was hospitalized, requiring us to move in with his mom, it was the Salvation Army that brought food and some Christmas presents, not the government. And they have always been my #1 place to give to as an adult. And that is how it should be, in my opinion.
