The Patriot Act has both advocates and detractors. The advocates argue that the Patriot Act does nothing more than expand existing laws to cover terrorism investigations, while detractors point to significant evidence suggesting American citizens are the primary targets of the expanded surveillance powers conferred to law enforcement agencies.

Although America's founding documents declared unequivocally "that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness," the signing of the Declaration of Independence did nothing more to end the debate over rights, power, and liberty than did the discourses of Immanuel Kant, Thomas Hobbes, and John Locke. The notion of inalienable rights is rooted in Hobbesian theory, after Hobbes wrote in his Leviathan that "to use his own power, as he will himself, for the preservation of his own Nature; that is to say, of his own Life; and consequently, of doing anything, which in his own judgment, and Reason, he shall conceive to be the (most) apt means thereunto," thus offering philosophy's most basic elucidation of the concept of inalienable rights. Western philosophy has always focused the attention of its greatest thinkers on the concept of natural versus legal rights, with the former representing life, liberty, and those ostensibly inalienable rights granted to all people regardless of culture or custom, and the latter consisting of the rights bestowed upon citizens by the legal apparatus of their government.
