Why is childbirth a right? Would you accept a trade of a parent's life for a child's life, perhaps with a time delay?
There's also several financial methods that could be used to prevent undesirable wealth accumulation.

- crystalis 16y agoYou've simply asserted that, though. I own my own body, does that mean nobody should be able to say I'm not allowed to, say, defecate? What if I'm positioned directly above them? Simply being able to do something doesn't make it a right. (I, and nobody else, own my car. I.e., nobody should be able to say I'm not allowed to max out the speedometer?)
