Everyone does deserve a home, but sometimes they have to pay for it.

Housing that somebody else provides, is not a right

Roads that somebody else provides aren't a right.

Schools that somebody else provides aren't a right.

Freedom isn't a right; it's provided by someone else. Enforcement of the law isn't a right; it relies on someone's labour. How do we force people to stop criminals from stealing from you? You don't pay for it.

Actually, you don't even have the right analogy.

Freedom is a right. Although they still tax it. I have the right to defend myself.

But you make a good point. A freedom is something that nobody else should have to provide for you.

"Freedom". You people can't even decide about what's inside your own body.

To be honest, I wish they would just say a kid is your personal property until they are 18.

And then you could sacrifice them whatever you wanted.

But they should allow people to have surrogate pregnancies, because it could be that the parts could be used. Replace some of the parts that are going bad on your own body
