Basically your viewpoint isn't bad. In the US being a politician doesn't mean that you don't have some kind of job or company that you run. Therefore it may just so happen that after you become the influential type, you may start legislation motions in favour of the market your comapny resides.
In Poland politicians are required to stop working at their civilian jobs should they be ellected and if you own a farm you are required to use it for non economical purposes only, at last until the end of your election. This way, the politicians have no immediate gains should they try to work things in their favour.
As for the matter of what should the government be responsible for, well Poland is in the middle of privatizing many companies that have been state controlled thus far. This of course is to get rid of expenses that the government had to take for taking care of the facility
Furthermore, this is also to discontinue actions taken by politicians regarding the facilities. Such would compose normaly of hiring your friends and family and giving them managerial posts and the like.
Back on topic: the state should control such things as the Health department, some level of tv (in Poland the state tv station has about 30-40% of the market, while it should have no more than 10% imo) and key economical companies, such as petrol, gas facilities and to a degree mineral mines of all kinds. All facilities maintained by private investors would have to fend for themselves while the state could only help to a certain degree those companies that are controlled by the state.
