As I always point out, “health care” is not an ambient resource like air, or an intrinsic quality like the pursuit of happiness. “Health care” requires the active labor of others, so saying that health care is a right means that you believe you have a right to the active labor of others, regardless of your ability or even desire to pay for it.

This is what slaveowners believe.

Arms, be it rifles, pistols, ammunition for the same, or bladed weapons also require active labor to produce, but the 2nd Amendment assures us that our God-given right to keep and bear the same in defense of self, innocent others and our civil society shall not be infringed.

Health care and even health insurance are rights in the same sense as owning a rifle and ammunition (or a printing press, paper and ink). Obamacare infringes those rights.
