All individuals in society should be treated equally under the law, including members of law enforcement and others within the government. If I am not allowed to commit violence against you until you have been convicted of a crime, neither should anyone else, whether or not they wear a police uniform. Indeed, libertarianism advocates for private, rather than public, police forces.
> what is the ideology that lacks them
Statism in all forms grants special privilege to members of the government, including the power to tax and hold monopoly on the use of force. The US criminal code is full of exceptions for on-duty police officers, judges, and others, especially regarding firearms laws. Police officers can carry firearms into school buildings where others are guilty of a felony if they do, for instance. Thus you have inequality under the law. Such police immunity is what leads to the abuses we see every day.
So you can't compel a doctor to provide healthcare, whether you think it's a good thing or not.
Libertarians are for state's rights. You can be for both individual rights & liberty AND state's rights. That's perfectly inline with the Constitution.
And votes may go against individual liberty at the state level, but at least that's the proper domain for most decisions and it's local.
It would have been better if I'd referred to "the rights of the individual over the powers of the state," since the original intent behind the Constitution and its amendments was to enumerate the latter but not the former. Once again, though, this has nothing to do with the dichotomy between federal powers and those reserved to the individual US states.
