A better question would be where does a right requiring the labor of others derive from

A Constitution is just what the people agree upon to base their country on
Adam Cruz
mostly because rights require enforcement, and if you don't have anyone else willing to help you enforce it, it disappears as soon as you look away, go to sleep, get killed, or are otherwise unwilling or unable to enforce it yourself.

A right to own firearms depends on someone willing to fabricate them and selling them and bullets to you
But if you say doctors suddenly you're a socialist

Is that not called slavery?

Rights are something you are born with, that's why they are referred to as natural rights or God given rights. These would be true whether we are born in a pre civilization era, modern times, or post civilization era, because they always hold true. It is absolutely my God given right to defend myself and that can will hold true until the end of time. The same could not be said of a right requiring the labor of another. A constitution does not create rights out of thin air but rather it recognizes rights and defends them.

Because your trample the rights of the other person in the process and that philosophical inconsistency would destroy the concept of liberty.
Cameron Wright
Because your definition of rights is incorrect. According to the implication of your question, you would be denied rights if you were the only person on Earth. Who would be denying you that right? Nobody.

that's slavery.
there's only one right, and we all share it... it's a slippery slope from "Free healthcare" to "Everyone's enslaved to the morlock"

Just say no.

Exactly. We had this work program for black people here in the south one time. We just required a little work in exchange for room and board. These uppity motherfuckers started complaining, caused a big blow up with our neighbors and eventually a war of Northern aggression. It was gay as fuck. They didn't even thank us for bringing them over, finding them a job, giving them a place to live, giving them a real religion, or any of it.

Not really. No one alive agreed to our constitution. It was a framework that sought to limit government power, and until recently it worked ok at doing that. With the understanding that the power of the state is to be restrained, asking where the power would be derived from is very relevant. If there is no power to do this, then the power does not exist. Why would you ever trust ANYONE that has power over you?

Because you are and you dont even know it. Theres a reason they coined the term useful idiot. That's you.

Why do Americans have the best understanding of what rights are?

What happens if no one wants to provide you with it and the government can't fund the money required to entice people to voluntarily do it/make it for you? The only sustainable rights are ones that stop the government from restricting something.
Nicholas Bailey
Nice double-think. Though "freedom of healthcare" would be amazing if it got the government out of medicine altogether.

Who gets to decide who's rights are entitled to who's labor?
