[Randex]Positive rights threaten liberty


Recommended Posts

As Ayn Rand once said, "No man can have a right to impose an unchosen obligation, an unrewarded duty or an involuntary servitude on another man. There can be no such thing as 'the right to enslave.'" It might sound extreme to label positive-rights programs "slavery," but when you think about it, this conclusion is inescapable: Forcing some people to live for others via compulsory taxation is a form of involuntary servitude.
