Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

US law only covers "negative rights," which are rights that protect citizens from government interference or actions, such as freedom of speech and freedom of the press. It does not provide for positive rights, such as the right to healthcare or education, which are provided for in other countries. Additionally, the US criminal justice system can sometimes infringe upon an individual's human rights, such as through excessive use of force or denial of due process.
