This is clever but begs the question.


It would be begging the question, but I'm not arguing that healthcare is or even should be a right. I'm just pointing out that the fact that healthcare requires a doctor does not preclude it from being considered a right anymore than the right to an attorney. All I'm saying is that OP's stated argument is a non sequitur.

You're confusing human rights with enumerated rights. The right to defend yourself is a human right. The right to counsel is an enumerated right. They aren't the same, though they are similar.
