Also, “rights are made up”. K so saying healthcare is a right is a made up meaningless statement? Just confusing

Lmao, did you intentionally use the the meme format of “you may not like it but this is what peak ____ looks like?” Cause If yes, very funny. If not, then you may have the brain worms.
Please find me a constitution with healthcare as a “right”. I just looked and couldn’t find one. I’m sure you will provide me a list of countries that provide free healthcare, which again does not mean it’s a right.

No it’s literally not. You can believe and hope it is all you want, but unfortunately it is not. And just because it is paid for by governments in other countries does not mean that it is a “right” there either.
The American system is hugely broken and needs an overhaul. But to believe because you are born you are entitled to other humans caring for/mending you is asinine.

Ugh capitalism. I’m going to HATE when they charge money to save my life and drastically improve my everyday life. This system is the worst

A+ on your homework and your sense of humor than. On time too!
Good to know thanks. You’re right then.
My point, which I think intersects with your other comment is that a right is something inherent. In my opinion a right is something you “have” from the moment you’re birthed. The list of those rights is extremely small.
Governments can give you other rights like we have in the US. My bet was that while they’ve nationalized healthcare in many countries, they wouldn’t list it as a right. Because in my mind, that means no refusal of service no matter the procedure/ailment. As mentioned I was wrong.
But I stick to my point that healthcare is a product and the only nuance is who is paying.
Boiling it down if we go into the apocalypse tonight and a baby is born in the woods of South Korea tomorrow, no one is going to stop everything theyre doing for themselves to survive in order to go to tend to the baby. But the babies right to pursue happiness, live freely, and speak whatever it wants to speak (once able) still will be there.
That’s how I view a right
