We have the right to a pretty and loyal wife too, right?
lol, sentences are not my forte today, apparently...
Bingo. That's the part this idiot doesn't get; making someone do it for free, or making someone pay for it is modern day slavery.
This is no different that saying I have the right to a new concrete drive way and I want to make this idiot writer build it for me, or pay for it.

And oddly enough, I would opt to continue funding my local school if given the choice despite not having any children of my own.
I want the school to be better and I want my portion of the funding to be charitable.
Like the “occupy” groups, this “professor” shows the clear results of the wonderful benefit that higher education in the U.S. excells at providing its students = naive ignorance.
I’m going to load up my M1 and excercise my right to a 20,000 square foot mansion on a knoll overlooking Clayton Valley.
That is why none of the rights named in the Bill of Rights are for goods or services. I never hear conservatives in the media make this point explicitly but I wish I did. It is key. It is also a fairly simple concept, easy to explain so even a college student can grasp it.
Yep.
The right to free exercise of religion doesn’t mean someone has to build me a Church.
The right to peaceably assemble doesn’t mean that people must go assemble where I tell them to.
The right to keep and bear arms doesn’t mean someone has to provide me firearms and training.
The right to be secure in my home person papers and effects from unreasonable search and seizure doesn’t mean that someone has to provide me a home, papers and effects.
Our rights are given by our Creator - and do not require the compelled unpaid labor of anyone else.
Slavery is (should be) illegal in these United States.
There is a distinction between "rights" to economic goods and services that are the product of society and the actions of man and natural rights that are God-given.
Justice Ginsburg confirmed this view of the law when she recommended that the Constitutions of nations that promise “positive rights” (she didn't AFAIK use that term) be emulated - not our own.
To 0bama and his ilk a “negative right” is something that the government cannot do to you, while a “positive right” is something that the government must do FOR you.
Where are our rights from again?
An article written by an affirmative action professor of nothing remotely worth studying in support of the right to have working taxpayers pay for his children to go to an absurdly overpriced school to learn to be professors of nothing remotely worth studying. From useless to useless in two generations while sucking the life out of those who still do something worthwhile like plumbing or welding.
I am so proud of my wonderful country where we are fully committed to diversity. All the professors of this sort in the world added together are worth one hell of a lot less than one good toilet scrubber.

A complete analysis of the basic problem and it is contained in one sentence.
Emphatic NO for any wuss LIBERAL Arts Degree.
I didn’t have to read Professor Spence’s bio to know that he’s not a professor of economics.
“I want a right to a porche!”
I guess you’ve never heard of Political science 101. All President Obama has to do is make Swedish our official language. Then we would all a human right to own a Volvo.
dumb idea. As a ditch digger why should i work a shit job and pay taxes for some smarty pants to get a free education and high paying job? And why in the world would these little book smart elitists want to risk their precious and obviously so much more worthy lives in the military? Or did you mean they’d be officers sitting in an office in the U.S. somewhere while the ditch digger variety actually does the fighting?

Our Founders would be so proud.
Someone does not have a right to insist I teach them everything I know about Molecular Biology without compensation.
