The UN is a front-organization for totalitarianism.  It's current
operations are diametrically OPPOSED to the very same principles
which it was supposedly founded to support.

They UN defines such "rights" as the "right to a birth certificate"
(translation: parents have an OBLIGATION to violate their newborn
child's privacy by registering that child with government bureacrats
who keep files on EVERYBODY THEY CAN).

For a better understanding of Human Rights, check Amnesty International.

Clarification: Patents are of finite duration and non-renewable.

Property taxes are the means by which the Communists have turned
a property title from ownership into a mere "exclusive license to rent".

Pre-dating the Civil War?....I didn't think these laws didn't come
about until the socialist busy-bodies came about in the late 1800's.
