Government should protect the lives of citizens (free healthcare, sensible safety regulations, etc), whilst taking a step back from issues that relate to personal freedom (drugs, marriage, religion, guns, etc), and letting people in general do what they want provided they aren't harming people (pursuit of happiness).
Same i fall more in line with libertarian and green party.
