| SmoothCriminal said: The existence of nationwide healthcare is already a violation of individual rights. Specifically, your right to the fruits of your labor (usually money) and the right to spend that money how you see fit. When you're forced through taxation or theft (but I repeat myself) to pay for someone else's healthcare, that's a violation of your property rights. Focusing on the issue of contraception is really missing the forest for the trees. There are no rights being pitted against each other, only two separate sets of rights being violated. |
If you are saying that rights are being pitted against each other, just both being violated, then explaing what you see these rights being violated are, and the optimal solution that causes neither to be violated.
The issue here is the issue regarding birth control. That is what was discussed, and a focus around the Romney ad. There ARE other situations which end up pitting rights against each other. I could go and track those down, if you would want. Or, you can argue that rights are NEVER pitted against one another at any time, which would be an interesting argument to read.
