Good point.
Americans scream that North Korea is a Libertarian country because you can break the law there, but a Libertarian nation is a country where you are free to do what you want without being afraid of being arrested.
Americans say that breaking laws means freedom, but freedom actually means the absence of government.
In 1870 in the USA, you could have drank, smoked, gambled, and used prostitutes. Now you would go to jail if you drank, smoke, gambled, and went to prostitutes.
Going to prison for theft and murder is reasonable, but being jailed for a victimless crime is not.

I feel like changing the laws, government or politicians is unneeded and wouldn't solve the core issue anyway. There needs to be a culture shift.
The public needs to be more antagonistic to these institutions and the people that seek to prop them up. Not necessarily violence, just antagonism and social resistance at every opportunity. Even if everyone simply started to exercise their right to silence when interrogated by the police, it'd go a long way in slowly transforming those interactions.
No need to reform drug laws or anything. It should simply be impossible to convict. Jury nullification is all that's needed.
