It's really very simple.
To bestow rights on someone you have to be in a position of authority over all others...otherwise you have zero influence over those people who don't recognize your authority...Human rights means you'd have to have authority over all humans...no human or animal I know of has that amount of power. -

2023-02-15 at 6:41 PM UTCI had a full cup of raspberry Kool Aid (off brand) last night and my cat for the fuck of it, knocked it over spilling the red filth all over my carpet...just as I was sitting down to eat my pinto bean dinner. It took me 30 fucking mins to clean that shit out of the carpet while my beans got cold...then after I got another cup of Kool aid (off brand) I looked around and the fucking cat was up on the table again sniffing the fucking cup again...
The cat obviously does not recognize my authority or my "right" to enjoy my dinner. -

There was somewhat of a "Crisis" a few years ago in Blighty where doctors and nurses were leaving the UK to come to the US because of the money they could make here versus there.
So yeah, underpaying is a form of theft.
It's not just unerpaying it's wage fixing. -

this is phalse.
a person requires at least 4m² to spin around with their arms extemded.
32 billion m² is alot more than 10 000km². -

That would be allotting 6.56168 feet per person. You are much too liberal. I would sandwich them all in there like sardines in a tin can. See how they like that. -

2023-02-15 at 9:43 PM UTCThere's a Star Trek original episode where the ship encounters an entire planet which has eliminated death entirely, but creates the unintended consequence of the world reaching its capacity to make room for all the people, so everybody in the world stands shoulder to shoulder and can't lie down or sit down. They sleep standing up. The people dream of being alone, but they never can be. The episode is called, "The Mark of Gideon". Worth a watch.

Apparently you are incorrect, and human rights are inalienable, fundamental rights to which a person is inherently entitled simply because they are a human being.
Again, you didn't actually explain why you believe a "higher power" or "authority" is required to be involved at all, you've just asserted that is the case and expect everyone to accept your story. -

Who told you that?
Again a bullet to the back of the head will show you how worthwhile your imaginary rights are.
