Taxes on trade, not on the individual's labor.

Where is your "right" to force me to into your health care?

Try amendment 9, your rights don't supersede my rights.

There is no verbal contract quite a bit of the time.

And *again*, I tell you that you're full of shit and wrong. What I have

It doesn't matter if it is "acceptable". Until it is struck down it is
the law.

It doesn't matter if it is "acceptable". Until it is struck down it is
the law.

Right do not exist in "nature". Tell a bear about your "rights".
"Rights" are a totally human fabrication. Without sentience and society
there is no use for "rights".

Nope. That is a rightarded appeal to majority rule to do away with
majority rule. If an overwhelming majority decide that individuals are
to be stripped of some internally justified capacity to thwart the good
of the whole of the society then that overwhelming majority will override
the individual "opinion" of what is "right".

Though most of what happens regarding this particular subject is screech
monkey dung, the definition of "rights" is a societal operation because
outside a society the concept of "rights" has no meaning. Again: Tell
the bear you have a "right" to that fish he has in his mouth, or that the
candy bars in your back pack are YOURS.

In the 19th century those that did not like the social order moved west.
They could and did "live off the land" as there were "more trees than we
could ever use". What need had they of "rights"?

Rights do not exist in "nature". Tell a bear about your "rights".
"Rights" are a totally human fabrication. Without sentience and society
there is no use for "rights".

If an overwhelming majority decide that individuals are to be stripped of
some internally justified capacity to thwart the good of the whole of the
society then that overwhelming majority will override the individual
"opinion" of what is "right". And therefore establish what is "right"
and the concept of "rights".

They could and did "live off the land" as there were "more trees than we
could ever use". What need had they of "rights"? They simply left the
society. "rights" (that are of any benefit whatsoever) are what the vast
universal majority say they are.

Unfortunately, we currently "buy" stuff for which we did not contract.
Ans when morons refuse to insure their bodies, we end up paying for that
negligence.

And the recognition of the binding aspects of a verbal contract is
made stronger by corresponding evidense that such a verbal contract
was made.

Irrelevant. "The law" also is a societal construct. One societal
construct must yield to another, and the law must yield to rights.

That was a theft, I never agreed to what they forced on me. I can't be
prosecuted for the civilians that Obama has killed in Afghanistan with
money he stole from my paycheck before I ever got the money.

And you have a black leader! Sure! Canada and the UK had women; but

So far, so good. Our system does overlay individual rights on top of
majority rule.

And here, we part ways on both the law (I don't believe you have a
right to be free from taxation) and the policy (people do not
voluntarily provide health care, that's obvious from the empirical
evidence).

And where do those rights come from?

The right to "Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" has more to
do with the well being of the people, and being healthy by having a
longer life span, lower infant mortality and affordable health care
should not be reserved for those who can afford it, and no one else.

When can US insurance companies provide that?

Let me know. I'll crack a bottle of bubbly.

A lot of wackjobs want to see the FDA demolished, because they're
Libertarian ideologues who think that the magic of the market should
decide what works and what is snake oil.

I say that we test foods and drugs on them, so it's cheaper for the
corporations. That way we could save a fortune on taxes that are
spent on the FDA.

I just don't think that there are many candidates.

Oh! I get it! You're telling us that you like the idea of "Liberal
Trial Lawyers" who go up against corporations when "the little guy" is
getting fucked! And I'm confident that you support Tort laws, which
allow law suits against physicans who are accused of misconduct.

Yeah! Sure!
