This week, Walter Williams discusses rights versus wishes. So many people are claiming rights to health care, housing, prescription drugs, and then empowering the government to go out and steal for them to apply those rights.
Compare that to your right to free speech. Your basic right of free speech doesn't cost anyone anything. Unless of course, you force others to provide you with an auditorium, microphone, and the like. When people apply their 'right' to 'free' medical care, that is exactly what they are doing.
