"Rights" are constantly claimed but many are bogus. Jesse Jerkson believes there is a "right" to health care, affordable housing, reparations for his brain-dead admirers, clean air, clean water, a job, the list is virtually endless.

Governments do not recognize many claimed "rights" and their proponents just keep howling at the moon.

Our Bill of Rights recognizes certain rights as fundamental the rest are just more Leftist puffery.

This is a none starter or worse since many of the moochers and leeches DO believe that they have a "right" to what is in my wallet.

It's a simple test, really. If you claim a right that incurs an involuntary cost on another individual, it is not a right.
