According to the Natural Rights Argument, rights can be neither created nor destroyed by any human institution. Indeed the US Constitution expressly avoids using language that suggests rights are created or given by government.  Why, then, do so many Americans seem to believe rights are given to citizens either by the Constitution or by government? What can be done to remove this assumption?

    b    The Declaration of Independence
