The Right To Be Left Alone

What the hell kind of garbage is this?. You have no right to be left alone.

You're too stupid to be left to your own devices. Why, you could make the wrong decision.

Leave the thinking to our brilliant and well meaning progressive overloards.

Now get back to work and pay your taxes serf!

[Maceman]

The right to be left alone has been converted to a right to be protected by the government from being left "on your own."

“The one thing that we absolutely know for sure is that if we don’t work even harder than we did in 2008, then we’re going to have a government that tells the American people, ‘you are on your own,’” Obama told a crowd of 200 donors over lunch at the W Hotel..

The right to absolute privacy, enforced by Draconian state administered punishments?

All government employees have that right, it's part of their "public servant" package.

"I am with the South in life or in death, in victory or in defeat...... I believe the North is about to wage a brutal and unholy war on a people who have done them no wrong, in violation of the Constitution and the fundamental principles of government. They no longer acknowledge that all government derives its validity from the consent of the governed. They are about to invade our peaceful homes, destroy our property, and inaugurate a servile insurrection, murder our men and dishonor our women. We propose no invasion of the North, no attack on them, and only ask to be left alone."

~~Major General Patrick Cleburne C.S.A.

I think Michelle said something about this back in ‘08...

Something about being forced to participate or something. I’ll look for the quote.

Found it:

“He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your divisions. That you come out of your isolation, that you move out of your comfort zones. That you push yourselves to be better. And that you engage. Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual, uninvolved, uninformed. “

It was destroyed by the war on tobacco and the war on some drugs. I’ve seen quite a lot of its advocacy and celebrations of its destruction right here on FR.

Re: “Whatever happened to the right to be left alone?”

Haven’t you heard?

Our Constitution has conveniently “evolved” once again.

Whatever happened to the right to be left alone?

The last piece of that right was thrown in the garbage with the advent of the so-called "Patriot Act".

Haven’t you heard? The 4th amendment is for abortion. that’s it.

The “right to privacy”?
Didn’t the Supreme Court come up with that when they noticed an emanation from a penumbra back ‘73?
