Claims on Labor

Confusion never stops
Closing walls and ticking clocks
--Coldplay

Individuals who claim that they have 'rights' to cheap or free healthcare (or food, or shelter, or transportation, etc) are saying that they have a claim on labor of others. In order for an individual have be provided free healthcare, someone else must labor to provide those resources.

If that labor is done voluntarily, then it is charity.

If that labor is done by force, then it is slavery.

Euphemisms that seek to deflect, legitimize, rationalize, et al do not alter this fact.
