They CAN be taken, but it is the responsibility of the people to make sure that they aren't through voting and election of members of the government. Even though the constitution makes the beautiful statement that rights are God given it takes the structure of the constitution to make sure they are protected.

Our idea about basic freedoms today is different than in 1789 when the constitution was written. Today people think they have the right to be happy, but there is nothing in the constitution or government that ensures the happiness of individuals. It is up to each of us to ensure our happiness.

Free market capitalism is the only economic system that is predicated on these bases. It is not same as that which is currently practiced in the United States, due to the interference of government and political forces in the economy. A pure capitalist society is based upon willing buyers and willing sellers engaged in noncoerced transactions in the marketplace.

If the government fails to fulfill its obligations, individuals have the right to rebel and establish a new government.
