Supplementary notes

The question was phrased by the source as follows:
"Please tell me how much you agree or disagree with the following statements: Human Rights are important for creating a fairer society in Australia. Some people take unfair advantage of Human Rights. Everyone in Australia enjoys the same basic human rights. The only people who benefit from Human Rights in Australia are those who do not deserve them such as criminals and terrorists. Human rights abuses are a problem in some countries but they are not really a problem in Australia. Human Rights are meaningless."
