Why not start listing what might be considered natural rights?
I'll start off with one. The right to breath as deeply and as often as one likes. |
The right to the fruit of our labor & to pass it to our progeny.

You really don't seem to understand anarcho/libertarian socialism at all, rkzenrage.
Totalitarian socialism is 'you worked, now give it to us and we might give you some back' Anarchosocialism is 'you worked, now keep what you want/need and if you can find the slightest bit of empathy somewhere in your heart give away what you dont need to those who need it.' |

I do believe in giving to others and sharing a portion of what I have.
That portion must be pre-set in advance, cannot be changed at random and must not be on income, but only what you physically own alone so you cannot be double taxed on the same amount. Also, the amount taxed must be voted on by the people, not the leaders and I believe in a fixed percentage only. |
geez I thought it'd take at least a few more posts to get to tax.
What about the right to live free of oppression? |
What oppression? Where does that come in?
Make that one of yours... but you have to define oppression. Is a tax oppression? Is hearing another's free speech oppression? Is having to work for your own food if you are lazy oppression? |
It means people have a natural right to live free of oppression. That is slavery or servitude etc. People have the right to be free.

I've been having a think about the tax thing. I guess if we're talking about the natural rights of people, I wouldn't suggest they have a natural right to be taxed. It wouldn't be desirable.
|
natural rights are intangible in the main part aren't they?
|
I would not say that.
I feel that there are some inalienable rights, if you believe in freedom. |
such as?
|

|
Best time to edit them... when they are soft and fresh.
|
lol...if you say so. That post sounded kind of gross...in an intangible sort of way.
