The rights were there before. They are a precondition of government, just as water is a precondition of fish. Reply Logan, Memphis, TN 12/19/08 Well said, Ben. Reply Mike, Norwalk 12/19/08 Ben, I like it. As a side note, do we know who invented the internet or proved the globe has warmed over the last 8 years? :-) Reply Lois Finlay, Clarkesville, GA 12/19/08 Reply Anonymous 12/19/08 Reply jim k, austin 12/19/08 Good for you, Ben. Reply Waffler, Smith, Arkansas 12/19/08 We know who discovered water at least I know when I discovered it, and when my son discovered it. It was the first time we went to bathe in the Atlantic Ocean. All living creatures discover things anew everyday and in every generation. It matters not who discovered anything if I have not personally also discovered it myself.
