      Yep. It is. That’s sorta the point though. “Worst” is subjective. Personally? I’d never move to one of those 10 places. But, a lot of them think that the lack of reproductive rights is a good thing, not a bad thing.

      I don’t think that… But, a lot of folks in America do.

            Your right to a jury trial depends on the service of your fellow citizens, as well as the judge, etc.

            Your right to vote depends on the service of many volunteers to work the polls, count votes, etc.

            Rights are granted and protected by governments; whether they require a service is irrelevant.

                That sidesteps my point, which was that “rights” are granted by governments (the first of those two, jury trial, is literally in “The Bill of Rights”). You can disagree about what should be a right, and in a country with a democratic procedure for determining rights, you can vote to change what is considered a right, but whether it requires a service or not is irrelevant.

                Healthcare requiring service does not preclude it from being a right.
