you have a right to be free. Right to self defense. Right to free speech.
You don't have a right to the services of others.
- munk-a 3y agoI would just briefly point out that all three rights you've listed require the assistance and consent of those around you.
- saulpw 3y agoI don't think the parent is correct in dismissing healthcare as a right, but to be fair, the rights they listed are 'passive' rights. They only require the state to not get in your way. e.g. you don't have a right to arms, you have a right to bear arms. If you can't get the weapons themselves there's absolutely no requirement for the government to give you some.
- orange-mentor 3y agoWho said anything about rights? We just want health care to be free at the site of service and funded by taxes. Just like fire fighters, police, etc. Every other western country does it that way, and none of them are clamoring to build a system like the USA currently has.
- pauldenton 3y agoWhat about the right to bear arms. Do you want guns to be free at the site of service and funded by taxes? Just like a Militia giving away uniforms and long arms?
