You don't have any "rights" - what you have is power. You have the "right" to do anything you can do without someone else stopping you from doing it. Calling it a "right" just gives a sort of fabricated dignity to the act of asserting your will.

So, no power, no rights.
The more power you have, the more rights you have.
That sounds about right to me.
