LIbertarians clamor for both economic and individual freedom. If the businesses had freedom to do whatever they wanted, wouldn't that (hypothetically) then infringe on individual liberties held in such high regard? (ie corporations could limit what individuals could buy, prices and control production and absolute costs as well as wages and working days)

Like socialism, libertarianism is based on high ideals.
And also, like socialism, it would self-destruct. Utopias are best left for subject matters in novels.
(Ah, ThePeskyWabbit, the question is not confusing to someone with a little better knowledge of political concepts. Perhaps you might do a little research?)

Gosh, your question---or statement, rather----is so confusing. You are attempting to bash Liberals. However, in your descriptions, you are outlining----exactly----what George Bush is recommending by phone taps, video cameras, controls on wages, controls on hiring/firing, and corporate benefit tax structures.
Maybe there's a few typos or something, but I don't think you mean "Liberals."

YES!!! They would be the first ones that would start whining about less freedoms.
