Nobody has a “right” that it is incumbent upon someone else to provide for them.

Someone does not have a “right” to insist I teach them everything I know about Molecular Biology without compensation.

Nobody has a “right” to insist that you fix their car for free.

Nobody has a “right” to insist a Doctor perform a procedure on them for free.

Nobody has a “right” to the compelled and non-compensated labor of another.

Teaching is a labor. Some students are more laborious to teach than others.

That is why none of the rights named in the Bill of Rights are for goods or services. I never hear conservatives in the media make this point explicitly but I wish I did. It is key. It is also a fairly simple concept, easy to explain so even a college student can grasp it.

I’ll happily fill that niche, on condition they promise not to ask anybody with actual knowledge of the subject for a second opinion about the material I present to them. It might be fun to screw up freeloaders for life, and we retirees need all the hobbies we can get.
