Those rights are very flimsy actually. The government can seize your house, your car, and your money anytime. Hardly a monopoly when a third party can break it at will.
replyThat the state which grants you your right can take them away doesn't make them flimsy.
replyAnd it's certainly more than "hardly" a monopoly. If the government gives a certain company right to operate on train track infrastructure but denies the same to every other company, then does that first company hardly have a monopoly?
Sure. That’s how rights work. It’s why we need to keep on fighting for them when necessary.
