The Epoch Times: 'First Do No Harm'—A Viable Principle for Politics?
American government policies that harm citizens are not justifiable. The early U.S. government aimed to protect the rights of every citizen, as stated in the Declaration of Independence. The founders believed that government should uphold individual rights and become illegitimate if it infringes upon them. The Constitution outlined the purposes of the federal government, including forming a united nation, providing equal protection, maintaining peace, defending against foreign attacks, promoting the general welfare, and securing liberty. The founders envisioned a limited government that acted as a referee in the economic sphere and allowed individuals to pursue their own American dream without interference. The original concept of government aimed to refrain from harming citizens, but this idea seems to have been lost over time.
