    Get over yourself.  You're no John Galt.  Society won't miss your 'contribution'.

    The only reason your labor carries any value is because you belong to a functioning society.  Without that, your labor would primarily consist of chopping wood to keep warm. 

    Prattling on about the right to one's labor doesn't make you some great libertarian philosopher, it gives you an excuse to be a narrow-minded freeloader.

    I am not your slave.  Get over yourself.  You don't have the right to my labor.

    You weren’t born with them. You were born in a location where these rights were put into place by people and then maintained and enforced by people.

    But he exerted his free will to enable himself to be born in the United States vs, say the Soviet Block.  Therefore he did it on his own, much like everything else he does every day.

    Exactly. And incredibly lucky to be born in that place and that time in history. The vast majority of what you have is due to pure, blind luck; a rather small percentage is due to your own efforts. Difficult for many to accept, but it's true. Those who have a lot tend to assume it's their due.

    slave != contributing member of society

    There is no utility to your labor, if it weren't for the societal structure that surrounds you.

    Without society, your labor carries no value.

    Why is it that libertarians don't understand basic economic principles?

    No, you are wrong.  Everyone is born with their rights, only their governments take them away.  Government doesn't grant Rights, government allows privileges. 

    If you were born on a random island you do whatever you want, until someone says that you can't.

    If there wasn't a societal structure to assign value to your labor, you and whatever it is that you produce are worthless.

    In your world when I had a heart attack 3yrs ago I’d be dead , you know why I’m alive ? Because I drove my factory made car to a local emergency rooms where educated doctors made sure I didn’t die on the operating room , thank god for living in a working society...

    So society should determine labor value?  Sounds rather Libertarian, LOL.  Muh free markets!

    Glad you finally agree.  Free markets should determine labor value, not government.

    No, people try to take each other's "rights" away, government is the only thing that protects you.
    You say I have no right to your labor, what if I say, "too bad, I'm taking your shit"?
    Do you think your guns protect you?  That's childishly laughable.


    I don't understand how you can fail to see how soundly your clever catch phrases get destroyed when faced with reality.

    You’re only born with an ability to suck a teat and a brain with a large potential for growth. (And some other inherited traits). If you’re on an island with others, your group would rather quickly create some form of rules and what happens when people don’t follow those rules. It occurs naturally with higher functioning animals. In large form, humans call it government. What I just said sounds really basic because what you said sounds like an adolescent caught in a power struggle.

    I'm so glad the Founding Fathers were infallible and neither society nor the Constitution has changed or evolved in 250 years.

    Constitutional originalism is a bigger pile of horse shiat than libertarianism.  

    Just another 'philosophy' used by the myopic, evil, and ignorant to justify their abhorrent position in life.

    Are you really trying to equate participating in a democratically governed society to slavery??  

    Are you really trying to compare any aspect of your life to slavery??

    Are you really claiming to be a slave??

    What is the matter with you??
