Cool. So charity is not enough.Charity is enough, just don't expect for me to automatically think you are a good person for doing.
I can imagine you also support hate crimes legislation.
Why would you think that? Nothing I have said should lead you to that conclusion.
Cool. So charity is not enough.I do not recall asking for you to think I am a good person. It should be sufficient that I clothe you, feed you, give you shelter, provide for your education...Charity is enough, just don't expect for me to automatically think you are a good person for doing.
I can imagine you also support hate crimes legislation.
If you suspect motives in charity why not in crime? It is internally consistent.Why would you think that? Nothing I have said should lead you to that conclusion.
When you have an affirmative right then you are making a claim on someone else's life to provide you with the object of that right.I do believe you have the right to food and some form of shelter, yes.
Im making a "claim"? What kind of claim? What do you mean by claim?When you have an affirmative right then you are making a claim on someone else's life to provide you with the object of that right.
Must suck to be a slave... Not making the connection here.i have a friend who is a slaveholder. I know. I am one of his slaves...
I do believe you have the right to food and some form of shelter, yes.
How does the right to X equate to the entitlement to have X provided to you by others?I do believe you have the right to food and some form of shelter, yes.

A demand. If you have a right to something then someone else must be forced to give it to you. If you have a right to a free lunch then someone else must be compelled to give up what is theirs to fulfill your "right".Im making a "claim"? What kind of claim? What do you mean by claim?
You are one as well. You just don't recognize the weight of your slave collar and chains. You will.Must suck to be a slave... Not making the connection here.
Before "the system" arrived that makes us First World,
I don't think in a civilized government that anyone should starve to death or die because a disease went untreated. I do think that citizens of our country are entitled to food and healthcare. It would be barbaric to deny people these things especially when we live in a prosperous country.
It's not that simple. What I would have died from was a large cyst that required surgery. Pretty minor surgery, and actually not a big deal... if you have medical care. If I didn't, I would have been dead in a month.
In other words, I never would have made it to adulthood without comprehensive medical care. And I'm a healthy person.
The same is true of anyone who's ever have appendicitis, asthma, severe allergies, or even a cavity. All of these are common, and can result in death if left untreated.
...And then plunge me into a few thousand dollars of debt for having the audacity to get sick? Lovely.
How do you lower poverty?
Note only are entitlements not necessary, they're not Constitutional.
No one is entitled to someone else's property. Slavery is illegal in civilized nations.
That is completely different. If the government pays fair market value for your property in order to provide a good or service for the benefit of everyone then it is legal and constitutional everywhere. That is not the same as telling me that I must work two days out of every week my entire life for the benefit of other people. The first is a godd thing. The second is state-mandated slavery.Tell that to local gov. that if they decide they wish to widen your street and put in sidewalks they will make you sell them that part of your land. I mean force it on you
Fascinating. In your view, when a business employs someone with a high salary it contributes to poverty and unemployment?
Could you explain how?
Then you are a Marxist.
If it is true that the majority believes that the US Constitution should contain a fundamental tenet of Marxist dogma we are doomed as a nation.
Of course. But that is central and you agree to it. Therefore...That single maxim isn't the totality of Marxism. There's a lot more to it than that.
Of course. But that is central and you agree to it. Therefore...
