What should people have a right to?

Asked by thisismyusername (2940points) December 29th, 2017

To keep things simple, let’s assume we’re talking about citizens of your country. The people in question are 18 years old.

First, if the person (person A) is working full-time, what should this person have a right to, regardless of income/wealth?

1. roads
2. housing
3. firefighters
4. police
5. healthcare
6. military protection
7. K-12 school
8. trade/skill training
9. college
10. pre-school
11. child care
12. heating/electricity
13. trash/recycling services
14. public transportation

Second, if the person (person B) is either unemployed or working part-time, does this have an effect on your answer?

I’m more interested in the reasoning and criteria behind your thoughts on this. For example, if you feel that person A should have access to roads and protection by firefighters but not housing, what criteria are you applying to make this assessment. And if person A has access to something that person B does not, please elaborate.
