To ring my own bell, I called up the Ralph Bristol show (Nashville, mornings) when he had Congresswoman Marsha Blackburn (a good, conservative Republican) and corrected them both on the use of the word "rights" when talking about health care. I told them that people have rights given to them by God. Governments have powers (not rights) that are given to them by the people. I also told them that no person has a right to something that must be provide by the labors of another, therefore, no matter how sick you are, you have no right to demand that another person take care of you.

I would amend that slightly and allow that minor children have a right to be supported by the labors of their parents.

Also, marriages quite often involve a certain oath having to do with “sickness and health” hint hint hint
