the conservative or
libertarian idea of rights is focused on negative rights, like "you have a
right to not be punched in the face", which does not require a cost or
labor from other people. My right to free speech does not require someone else
to labor or pay for me to receive something. It's a restriction on how other
people can infringe on my actions, not a requirement that other people perform
certain actions.It's a really deep fundamental difference in worldview that
exists between people, and is really the core of political differences IMHO.
The two different views just comprehend each other, because to the positive
rights side, the other guys are evil cruel selfish bastards who are fine with
people being homeless or poor and want to deny them of their 'rights', to deny
them of what they believe to be a 'human right' that every human should have.
