“Well, a right can’t require anything from anyone else other than they not infringe upon yours. Nothing anyone claims as a right can require property or labor from another.”

What about a contract right? If I have a contract with someone do I not have the right due to the contract to require property or labor from them according to the terms of the contract?

What about property rights? If your personal property in the form of a cow strays onto my real property, do I not have the right due to my real property ownership to require you to put forth the labor to remove the cow from my real property? Or, do I not have the right due to my real property ownership to take your personal property, the cow, for my own?

In the first case, you entered into a contract voluntarily. In the second case, your rights were violated. Presumably, the offender would be given due process before being deprived of life liberty or property. More than likely, s/he would voluntarily take care of the problem so it doesn’t come to that.
