Our government was designed to protect all citizens and do what is best for the entire nation.  Good citizens who love their country should agree with this. 

I think there are definitely different conceptions of the common good at play here.

When some hear of protecting citizens they think of walls and Muslim bans, not healthcare or education. 
Predatory health insurers are not the enemy, but guarantors of "choice" and hence "freedom."
