Positive rights exist between parents and their children. I'm glad the majority disagrees with you, and that their views are asserted over yours, in this case. The majority in the West think the government should provide a lot, but they arent honest enough to pay for present benefits with present spending. Deficit spending to fund perpetual government programs is just taxation without representation on the young and unborn. You certainly dont end up with a society like that because of principled and consistent values. Deficit spending cant last forever. When math forces a hard stop, the people who will be hurt the most are the people who rely on government benefits the most. It will be a hard lesson on why violence is not the solution to poverty. So we've moved away from rights, and are now on government spending habits. Let's stay on topic. --- Previously, on Gattelstar Balactica... <cite>BaiusGaltar posted [p:924345989] in Is access ...

masterpug53 07/07/19 9:59:19 AM #104:	As Carlin said, rights are an idealistic fabrication that have a bad habit of being stripped away when they're needed most. They're still an ideal worth striving for, though. L0Z posted... Is this topic the plot to fallout 3? It's definitely no less hackneyed and intelligence-insulting. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. <cite>masterpug53 posted [p:924358257] in Is access ...
