You seem to forget there are so called "rights" that contradict each other. More than a  few  years back, a store would carry the sign "We reserve the right to refuse service to ....". The law then changed so that the customer had the "right" to service.

So "rights" of the private owner, were taken away, while "rights" were given to the customer.

So in effect, the government is the one who defines the "rights" of citizens down to the most minute detail. That might be more scary, then "if you don't like the store, or company to work for, go to another store or company".
