One of your rights is the ability to sign away some of your rights. It was a private contract between private citizens, just like marriage. Other than recognizing it's legal existence I don't think the government should be overly involved. Barring something truly egregious of course.

Inaction, like, for example, not saving lives where you could have is also grounds for expulsion.
