A note in passing: if government should protect against harm to individuals, then ours in the U.S. doesn't do a very good job. Potential murderers are free to do anything they wish; only after they've murdered are they subject to legal action. I think it might be better to say that government should provide an environment in which practice of the Golden Rule *may* thrive. There are no guarantees.
