It doesn't affect my joy in the slightest.
Perhaps you meant jurisprudential.
And I wasn't making a general statement about law. In that regard, we do all have obligations all the time both to the state/society and to each other (though we're not on trial).
Rather, I was making a point about the nature of the law under discussion. Which is focused on acts of unequal treatment rather than giving extra benefits to particular groups.
In other words, the law is concerned with negative liberty, not positive benefits.
