Positive/negative rights is a useful distinction when talking about concrete implementation details, but its utility fades when talking about what ought to be where it tends to get put forth axiomatically. Layered complexity creates logical contradictions, whereby even though a right might not be specifically infringed in the negative sense, it still has been effectively nullified constructively. This list is not meant as a basic legal implementation, but rather is useful as a list of metrics for evaluating societal outcomes. Thus it's less important whether its ideals have been arrived at by explicit government guarantee, or through free association and general prosperity.
