Well, OK. Or maybe they come from garden compost, or the luminiferous aether. You're just making bald assertions.

As far as "communist rights" are concerned, I don't think the idea of rights has much prominence in communist thought.

And your linking of rights (as you conceive of rights) with "thriving" (which you haven't defined, but I assume you mean wealth) is pretty fishy. Many people in the USA are not wealthy at all.

Ya know, the point is lost when one starts to debate the meanings of words. You and I both know what "thriving" means.

I don't know what you mean by thriving, which is why I asked.

And you still aren't addressing my question, which is what are rights, and where do they come from.
