I mean, I guess if I have to pick one, then its "The right to economic and physical security."

But ideally, both would be protected.

The whole thing is a false dichotomy. You won't keep one very long without a reasonable quantity of the other. Nor can either be absolute. A reasonable balance with a good quantity of both protections is my goal.

No, the first one is a government that provides everyone with economic and physical security.

So Duk, basically you want economic & physical security, AND personal freedom of speech and behavior, ...but only for your chosen few, just like on CC, right?
That is called oligarchy.

Depends on how you interpret it. Basic economic security can also be accomplished through a strong healthy jobs market.

Almost, the one truly inalienable right is the Right to Be Dissatisfied. Everything else is either a privilege or a crime, depending on P.O.V.
