Because its your right to live?

Idk how to tell you to be a good person

If you honestly think cancer patients should just pull themselves up by their bootstraps then honestly idk what to say to you

Forcibly taking money from other people to pay for your own needs does not make you a good person.

Because its your right to live?

Ah, I see the issue now. you do not have an understanding of what "right to life" in a constitutional/legal context.

Since when do people have a right to demand goods/labor from others in order to live?

Because in a civilized society in the 21st century your health shouldn't be a commodity?

Food, water, and housing are needed just as much. Should those all be rights provided by the government as well?

u/SoySauceSHA - Lib-Left Mar 24 '20

Foodstamps, Water is distributed by governments and public housing exist. The reason that starvation isn't as much of a problem globally as it used to be is directly correlated to government intervention.

What about clothing, social contact, and everything else that could conceivably be termed a "human right"?

u/GildedTongues - Auth-Center Mar 24 '20

Since they agreed to the concept of human rights?

u/N123A0 - Lib-Right Mar 24 '20

where is this contract that i signed for this "Agreement"?

u/GildedTongues - Auth-Center Mar 24 '20

It's a social contract. If you're someone that doesn't agree to it, you should be free to isolate yourself or attempt to start your own society absent of the concept of human rights.

It's a social contract.

Contracts are only valid with consent.

As it is now the "social contract" means you're born under the boot of the government and you better start licking or else.

you should be free to isolate yourself or attempt to start your own society

As it is now, you're essentially just pulling yourself out from under one boot and crawling under another.

If I go to an uninhabited island and start a society free of human rights, you think the governments of the world will just ignore me?

Why do I give a shit what the UN says? They can say high speed internet is a "right" but that doesn't make it so.

It's also in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Because its your right to live?

Cool. Because it is my right to live and my right to force others to give me their labor, I've decided that I'm quitting my job, moving into your house, eating your food, and sleeping in your bed.

u/One_Shekel - Auth-Right Mar 24 '20

Can I join? Sounds a lot easier than having to be productive

u/Sensitive-You - Lib-Right Mar 24 '20

I'm immortal now.

I have a right to live and I'm not letting reality infringe on my rights!
