Same argument could be made for food. You're saying that those who earned it should hand it over to those who want it. In your scenario, where's the incentive to earn it for either party -- if you take it from me, I won't bother to earn it; if you hand it to me, I don't have to bother to earn it. As a landlord, I'm doing the homeless a favor by offering my excess property for rent; but they have to earn it, otherwise where's the incentive for either of us?

Yes, I believe in human rights -- every human has a right to make an effort. No human has a right to take from his neighbor without giving anything in return; that's a recipe for the collapse of a society.

And don't even start me on natural rights.
