I would add that there is a large difference between a right and an entitlement!
I have a right to work - but I am not entitled to force an employer to hire me!
Furthermore, although I tend to agree with Hamilton's argument that a BoR was unnecessary - exactly those rights are also inalienable!
Essentially we have the “right” to do just about anything, as long as it does not infringe upon the rights of others.
It is the responsibility of governments to secure these rights and provide for an environment where they can be excersized freely.
“Furthermore, although I tend to agree with Hamilton’s argument that a BoR was unnecessary - exactly those rights are also inalienable!”
Why do you think the right to a trial by jury is inalienable (or unalienable)?
