I think they do become blurred. If you and I live next door to each other, almost anything I do on my property can have some kind of impact on you (particularly with regard to things like water and air quality). Should I be permitted to play my stereo all night if it keeps you awake? Conversely, should you be able to force me never to play my stereo at all?

A real dilemma in this regard: If you live next door to me, should I be permitted to bring down the law against you if your refuse to have your children inoculated against lethal infectious diseases?

Introducing water, air, or noise pollution onto my property is a violation of my rights. While you would certainly have more elbow room to produce such pollutions and easily keep them on your own property if you lived in an agrarian society, lack of such elbow room does not blur the essential concepts of "freedom" and "liberty."

If inoculations are available and you have been inoculated, why would you care whether my kids have been?
