Whereas, Foundational principles of America talks about Federalism and Limited Government where people delegate certain powers to national government and while state and people retain all other powers.also the government has only limited powers which have been granted to them by the constitution, and if the powers are not in the constitution then it does not lies with the government. Also in the Foundational principle, there has been a check and balance put to prevent accumulation of power to one branch of Government. Also, it has been criticized on Human rights issues, including the least protection of workers of most western countries, imprisonment of debtors and criminalization of homelessness and poverty issues also for ill-treatment of immigrants and through invading the privacy of its citizens through surveillance. programmes

Due to Such reasons UN Human Rights has been hostile to foundational  principles of America.
