I teach American History for high school in my home school co-op. One of the questions I like to ask the students goes like this: the first amendment protects five rights. Who can name all five? Then I count down from there - who can name four? Three? Two? Usually, the students can name only one or two.

Then I ask, if you were unable to list all five, how would you know if the ones you could not name have been taken away?

Students are reflective at that moment because it gently exposes the cost of their ignorance.

Good for you in asking her to get specific.

Especially with "rights" talk, the details matter. Classic liberalism is built on negative rights, that is, the government promises not to do things. Modern progressivism (Marxism) is based on positive rights where the government promises to provide things to everyone.

One of these promises can always be kept. One of them cannot. I really wish more young people really understood what this sort of thing means.

If you tell people they have a "right" to food, water, and shelter, does that mean they can walk into a restaurant or grocery store and eat without paying? Does it mean they can walk into a house and occupy it at will? If so, what do we call it when we allow people to take and use things they do not own (theft)?

If you tell people they have a "right" to healthcare, does that mean that you can force a doctor and nurse to take care of you if you can't afford to pay them? And if so, what do we call it when we force a person to work without paying them (slavery)?

Modern progressive thought revolves explicitly around justifying both theft and slavery. It is the opposite of freedom and liberty, which cannot exist outside of a system based on voluntary human interaction.
