Every individual has inalienable rights of life, liberty and property. The only legitimate function of government is to protect those rights.
But, where is it written that we have these rights? Based on what do we have rights? Says who? If I say people dont have natural rights, who's to say that we do? I mean, how can it really be proven? Isnt this just another one of those things people say all the time, but there is really no solid basis for it (I'm playing the devil's advocate).
