Well if someone willingly signs up to be a doctor and chooses to work in public healthcare then yes as part of their employment contract and hours they will be "forced" to treat you while at work.

There are many things described as rights that do not even make sense outside of the concept of an organised society with a governing system. How can a corporation have a "natural" right? How can a state have a "natural" right?

God given, natural rights don't exist. God firstly does not exist so there's that. Secondly, in nature, humans can only operate based on what they are personally capable of doing. If I am capable of defending a piece of land then for all purposes I can call it my property. If someone is stronger than me and takes it by force then for all purposes it's now their property. Me then claiming that I have a "right" to that property is meaningless - in what context and to whom am I going to make this claim of rights over that property? Is there something woven into the fabric of nature that identifies it as my property which I have a right to, and if so, where?

We have rights because we invented them and we have a system which is organised and strong enough to enforce them. As such we can choose whatever the **** we want to be considered as a right, and we already do just that. It's as simple as that boyo.
Most people can't afford to hire a proper attorney though. Either we all have the same level of representation or none of us do. People go bankrupt paying attorney fees far too often. I say we do away with greedy private firms. If I need a divorce lawyer I should be able to walk into a public law firm and get one for free.. Public defenders for ALL!

So you didn't understand anything said. Got it.
i dont know why youre arguing dictionary definitions of "right." thats not an argument. its a logical fallacy. but then again you dont understand the absolute basic concept of the social contract of government. you think of it like a lease agreement.

like an idiot
Dictionary definition of "right": something to which one has a just claim (Merriam Webster)

Do explain how you have a "just claim" to other people's money, time and energy. If the question is too difficult for you let me know, I am sure I can dumb it down even more for you.

Do people have a right to legal representation?

How do they have a just claim to a lawyer's money, time and energy?

No. It's a service, not a right. The government recognizes the necessity of that service, and made provisions for people to receive that service even if they can't afford it.

They don't. No lawyer is forced to represent anyone, and those who voluntarily choose to do so are compensated for it.

This argument about a right to legal representation breaks down once its invested further. The right to legal representation is conditional in that it only applies once certain conditions are met and thus its a right afforded to you. So for example if public schools are a right is it conditional or can i demand by 6 months old baby a seat in a classroom because its the babies right to be educated?

Well that's wrong since the Constitution explicitly recognises a right to legal counsel, might want to read past the 2nd Amendment sometime.

Your explanation doesn't really prove what you're trying to say either. If all citizens are rightfully entitled to/can justly claim the use of a service regardless of ability to pay, then in what sense is it not a right? I mean it fulfills all the criteria of a right which you kindly provided so what exactly are you arguing?

i remember arguing with her about the social contract of government and she was like "i never signed the agreement"

she was literally thinking of it like a lease agreement

i had to calmly explain to her that she was agreeing to the social contract of government by living here, driving on the roads, benefiting from infrastructure, using the internet, using the various protections afforded etc, and that she could opt out by moving somewhere else

this is why education is important. guarantee she's never read locke, hobbes, voltaire, rousseau, etc. she's just fixated on the dictionary definition of "right"

LOL the law does not force anybody to do work for anyone, that has a name, it's called "slavery" and it's outlawed in our country.

The American Bar Association, which is a VOLUNTARY ASSOCIATION, has a rule that if you are a member you must do at least 50 hours of pro bono work. That's the extent of the "obligation".

So before telling others they don't know what they are talking about, you may want to take your own suggestions, folks.

Would they though? Their kids don't actually need an education to get anywhere in life like everyone else. They could be an actual retard and get placed in a cozy gig making lots of money.

Funny how you have not offered any counterargument other than "you don't know what you are talking about". Why could that be.... ??? Because you have no argument? One wonders...

I would have discussed the different categories of rights gladly with somebody a bit smarter than yourself. Especially the difference between contractual rights and natural rights, which is exactly what this discussion is about.

thanks sy, i love it when non-lawyer lay people explain to licensed attorneys how their job works

the courts do, in fact, regularly appoint attorneys to work for defendants, against their will. nobody cares what the ABA says. it has no authority over licensed attorneys.

the RIGHT to an attorney is enshrined in the SIXTH AMENDMENT TO THE US CONSTITUTION. the state bars where attorneys are licensed enforce this right, not the ABA. if youre a defendant in a criminal case, the court WILL appoint you an attorney as a RIGHT, even if the attorney doesnt want to do the job, and even if the defendant cant pay. the attorney does not have the right to withdraw, and if they dont do the work they'll face suspension, fines and/or disbarment. See Gideon v. Wainwright (https://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-supre...t/372/335.html) and maybe try reading the 6th amendment:https://www.law.cornell.edu/constitu...ixth_amendment

"The right of an indigent defendant in a criminal trial to have the assistance of counsel is a fundamental right and essential to a fair trial" (https://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-supre...t/372/335.html)

once again, you have absolutely zero clue what youre talking about

how was I supposed to move as a kid? and where can i move to that isn't claimed land

virtually all viable farming land on this earth is claimed by a govt

ur required by law to pay taxes (protection money) or they throw u in jail...u cannot opt out

I'm not against taxes, but let's call a spade a spade. There is an implied threat of force behind the police and military. If you do not pay them, they will kill you or throw you in jail.

wincey, you dont get taxed when youre a kid either. when you were 7, how much tax were you required by law to pay?

none.

when youre an adult, if you dont like the taxes or system of gov, then move somewhere where the gov better suits your views - or try.

youre right though, our world is governed virtually everywhere. you cant really opt out completely. that is true. thats just the way things are. but you can get pretty darn close i think.
