The Declaration of Independence is part of US Law as well as being one of our founding documents. It states in part that government is necessary to “secure the blessings of liberty.” It also states that whenever a government becomes hostile to liberty it is the duty of the citizens to replace it with one that will respect and protect our liberty.
One of those inalienable points of liberty is the freedom of association. But in the interest of remedying the outrageous denial of common human compassion when blacks were not permitted to use rest rooms or to go about their business as free citizens, instead of appealing to everyone to treat each other with respect, government was given the power to greatly infringe on private property rights and the right of freedom of association.
As a result, business was considered to be a form of “public accommodation.” In essence government usurped the rights of the business owner to voluntarily engage in free exchange. Now the concept has been extended to professions that government licenses. And now we see the terminal phase of this enslavement.
