Founding Principles
Individual Responsibility
Individuals must take care of themselves and their families and be vigilant to preserve their liberty.
Limited Government
Citizens are best able to pursue happiness when government is confined to those powers which protect their life, liberty, and property.

Government and citizens all abide by the same laws regardless of political power. Those laws respect individual rights, are transparently enacted, are justly applied, and are stable.
