In practice the government will have the last word on
what an individual’s rights are, because its police will
do what its officials and courts say. But that does not
mean that the government’s view is necessarily the
correct view; anyone who thinks it is must believe that
persons have only such moral rights as the government
chooses to grant, which means that they have no moral
rights at all.
Which one of the following most accurately expresses
the conclusion of the argument?
(A) Individuals have no rights at all unless the
government says that they do.
(B) What government officials and courts say an
individual’s rights are may not be correct.
(C) Individuals have rights unless the government
says that they do not.
(D) The police always agree with government
officials and the courts about what an
individual’s rights are.
(E) One should always try to uphold one’s
individual rights against the government’s view
of what those rights are.
