> Constitutional rights generally refer to what the government can and cannot do to a person.

...no? A constitutional right is one established in the constitution or inferred from the language of the constitution. That's it. Maybe in the US you're focused on the rights in respect to your government, but people have other rights. For example, in my country, I have the constitutional right to go on strike, and my employer is forbidden from retaliating. I also have a right to freedom, property, security, and freedom from oppression. Again, no one, neither the government nor my fellow citizens nor corporations can infringe on these rights.
