[[Category:Stephen Holmes]] [[Category:Cass Sunstein]] {{Quote | text = Philosophers also distinguish between liberty and the value of liberty. Liberty has little value if those who ostensibly posess it lack the resources to make their rights effective. Freedom to hire a lawyer means little if all lawyers charge fees, if the state will not help, and if you have no money. The right to private property, an important part of liberty, means little if you lack the resources to protect what you own and the police are unavailable. Only liberties that are valuable in practice lend legitimacy to a liberal political order. | cite = [[Stephen Holmes]] & [[Cass Sunstein]], {{Link | The Cost of Rights: Why Liberty Depends on Taxes}}, p. 20. }}
