Live Free Or Help?

I was listening to this story on NPR on a snowy ! drive home on Saturday, and a sentence jumped out at me. It's a story on the politically diverse nature of New Hampshire, where the motto is "Live Free or Die", and there was the following statement:
But there's this wrinkle to it all, despite the Libertarian-like trappings. People are also expected to look out for each other.

To which I thought: there is no wrinkle or irony here.

Laissez-faire capitalism, Libertarianism and other types of advocacy limited-government don't really advocate any particular actions you would take as a private citizen; in fact, that's the entire point of those political philosophies.

Instead, they protect everyone's right to make up their own mind about what to do. Including looking out for each other.
