Your government should reflect the values of the people. The government should respect the rights of individuals and not merely be a vehicle for majority opinion on every subject. Government should be active in protecting the people and not subjecting them to dangers modern or historic. If government is aware of a danger to the people (an earthquake fault or a volcano, for example) it should be pro-active in advising the people on the correct course of action that would help them mitigate the danger. Your government should provide the infrastructure that the economy depends upon, roads, dams, courts, record offices and the like. And should pay for these with a fair and just tax system.
