The Libertarian Party is not against social welfare programs. However, the party calls for reforms and increased responsibility. I would say that many Libertarians believe that non-profits (like mine) are better equipped to handle local social issues than is the government. The party proposes such alternatives as supporting private/public charities by providing tax incentives to those who donate. It would then be the private/public charities that fund programs (like the one I work for) instead of the government. I'm personally in favor of that option, but I'll take what I can get.
Republicans, from what I can see, are anti-social welfare. That's why I said what I said.
