such things).*
- The right to suffer.
- The right to be mistreated.
- The right to be ignored.
- The right to starve.
- The right to go unclothed.
- The right to go uneducated.
- The right to be have no job.
- The right to be homeless.
- The right to have no morals.
- The right to be a Republican.
- The right to be a Democrat.
- The right to bridge collapses.
- The right to be a listener.
- The right to ....

provide you the right to suffer, it also does not
prohibit you from suffering if you want to suffer.
