For society as a whole, nothing comes as a right to which we are entitled. Even bare subsistence has to be produced-and produced at a cost of heavy toil for much of human history. The only way anyone can have a right to something that has to be produced is to force someone else to produce it for him. The more things are provided as rights, the less the recipients have to work and the more others have to carry their load. ✨ Thomas Sowell (2011). The Thomas Sowell Reader, p.74, Basic Books
