In this lecture, Stefan Molyneux discusses the philosophical underpinnings of rights, human nature, and governance, critiquing the concept of natural rights as subjective constructs without universal validity. He emphasizes self-ownership and personal accountability, arguing that viewing health care as a "right" undermines property rights. Molyneux examines the relationship between authority and individual responsibility, suggesting that societal structures can enable the evasion of accountability. Through personal examples, he advocates for a shift towards recognizing objective realities of self-ownership to foster a more just and responsible society.
