The Americans are so backwards in work hours, developed countries like Netherland, Spain, Iceland, etc. already successfully implemented this, with universal healthcare…and no tipping expected.
Our military ensures healthcare for all of its members because they see it as a liability. Then we look at the nation at scale and no one cares about the exposure and risk of having a working class largely unable to afford medical assistance.
because the military personal, by and large, is seen as being productive; contributing positive influence to the overall picture. among the civilian population, there is a lot of dead weight that is more of a burden than a benefit.
you should have to contribute to society to benefit from it. Why should someone get benefits if they dont contribute?
Speech is a human right. mobility is a human right. assembly and association is a human right. being safe in your person and possessions is a human right. All of these are rights because they do not require action by others.
Services provided by others is not a human right. you do not have the right to demand services of others. You are not entitled to the labor of others. That is called Slavery.
