So now the right to happiness is not a right. Thanx for your contribution.

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

So now the right to happiness is not a right.

That is totally correct. There is absolutely no right to happiness anywhere in Federal Law.

Why don’t you try answering some of the challenges that have been posed to you instead of simply asserting that anything that makes someone “happy” suddenly becomes a positive right to be enforced by goverment authority against any public opposition.

Just a question:
Do I have the right to own a gun?
Do I have the right to have a baby?
Do I have the right to not pay taxes, if they go towards things I am opposed to?
Do I have the right to have my votes count?

"So now the right to happiness is not a right."

Since when was there a right to happiness? Even if you are referring to the Constitution it only mentions a right to the "pursuit of happiness" and that is only in the preamble.

The Supreme Court has ruled that the preamble is not binding. The Right To Life movement tried to use the preamble to argue for a Consitutional ban on abortion, but that went nowhere.

The person playing the word games is the one you see when you look in the mirror.
