Most people think the government grants rights.
But that’s not true. As James Hickman explains —
“Government doesn’t give you rights. It gives you privileges.
And when it gives someone a privilege, it has to take away someone else’s right.”
Our rights exist without government. They come from a higher authority — not politicians or bureaucrats.
The role of government should be to protect those rights, not infringe upon them.
