Hey, I just invented a ten million dollar machine that can save your life, must I give you access to it? Is not giving you access to it a violation of your rights?

I think it is a big misunderstanding. I was being sarcastic about the whole "Happiness" being a right by saying that I wasn't happy paying taxes and I think foo was simply playing off of that comment.

no, at worst it's a challenge to negative liberty and a necessary mechanism for positive liberty.

presuming that all liberty is negative is lol.

I would say it's a slight to neutral liberty.
