Since you asked . . .

If Rawls is right, the correct principles of justice make the right to equal, maximally extensive freedom, first of all negative freedom, prior over other rights, including fair equality of opportunity and realtive economic equality. The state is supposed to guarantee basic rights by protecting them in law.
