#002: Where Do Rights Really Come From?


Listen Later

Today we ask, where do rights really come from? People say rights come from God. But what if you're an atheist? Does that mean you have no rights at all? What if you change religions? Do you get a whole new set of rights? I think that each of us is born with all of our rights fully intact. That they’re a very part of our existence. America's founders called rights inalienable. Meaning, stuck to you like glue. The right to live, to speak your mind, work for a living and enjoy the fruits of your labors. Can you ever abandon your rights? Yes, you certainly can. Just swap them out for privileges that can be taxed and regulated. How do you do that? Oh, it's easy. People do it every day. You say you want to hunt, to fish, get married or build on your own property? You'll need a license for that. Just fill out the license application and sign it. And you’ve got yourself a brand new privilege. And—bingo!—there goes another right, right out the window. OK, that's a wrap! Today's message was brought to you by the LifeWave X39 phototherapy patch.
