I know some places are more progressive in this regard. But from the U.S., I’d like to see every person entitled to:

  • shelter
  • food
  • healthcare
  • education and higher education

(As an aside, not sure “right” is the best term here, I think of these more as commitments that society would make because we have abundance. One advantage of the word “right” is that a person is justified in expecting it - it’s not welfare/ a benefit / a privilege)

    That’s how it is here in NL. We have the right to die, but you need to have several consultations first, and these usually include your family and/or friends at a certain point.

    I do not think it’s too invasive or cumbersome if I believe a recent article (in De Telegraaf so maybe not the most accurate?) that said the process usually takes between six months and a year.
