Citizen Rights

 

            Many ideals are held to be self evident they are not easily usurped from their possessor. There are certain unalienable rights that all rationale beings require to exist in a well functioning government. When these rights are subdued, hindered, or deteriorated the rationale being is no longer a citizen of that government of which he resides in but a mere slave. It is therefore every Governments chief responsibility to protect among the many unalienable rights the life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness of every citizen that resides under its domain. Certainly these rights are the key to any successful government.
             Rationale beings hold few things so sacred as there natural rights. These rights allow for their everyday activity whatever they may be. Because these rights are taken for granted it is worth noting that citizens of a free and just government could probably not distinctly identify what there intrinsic natural rights are. However if a citizen of a free and just government suddenly looses those rights that he takes for granted he will immediately be able to identify what he has lost. Citizens of any free government enjoy the benefits of their rights daily, it is what keeps them happy functioning members of society. It is fair to say that those who feel disenfranchised by it somehow commit crime and dissidence in society. This is not to say that all of their natural rights are being violated or that they are being violated in any way but, those committing crime feel that something personal to them has been taken, altered or not experienced as it should be. These natural rights that I speak of course are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. These tenants of self so accurately define how one acts in society that it is even beneficial for government to recognize them and heed them. The governments that have paid particular attention to these natural rights find that its citizens are more dedicated to the state than if they where living under a regime that did not protect these rights.
