One consistent source of conflict in contemporary moral issuesis government interference with personal choice for the sake ofprotection from harm. Policies/laws are designed to promote aperson's best interests and welfare by legislating their choices insome way. This can include laws related to public safety suchas those against murder, assault, etc., and it can include lawsrelated to individual well-being such as mandatory retirementcontributions or prohibitions against smoking. How can weboth protect personal liberty and promote public safety withoutexcessive governmental involvement?
