[LucyJo]

"Today, politicians literally speak of the "rights" of people as they attempt to guarantee a certain standard of living for their constituent-subjects."

Declaration of Independence: ". . . unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness."

[Jacquerie]

The next clause:

“That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men.”

The purpose of government is to secure our natural, God given rights. That is all.
