In the United States, any citizen should be allowed to own a gun.

Outlawing guns would mean that only outlaws (and police) have guns, risking the lives of innocent people who are unable to legally defend themselves.

If the whole human population spoke one language there would be mutual understanding enlightenment, and peace.

As long as humans are humans, there exist some people who do not want to avoid or reduce conflict. These people - murderers, robbers, scammers etc. - wish to create conflict in the hope of profiting from it. Having a universal spoken language among the whole human population will not solve this.

Barring an active epidemic, a person should be allowed to refuse vaccination for themselves and those they are responsible for and to not be punished by society.

If I consider an unvaccinated person a threat to my body, then I am ethically justified to protect myself against the threat by, for example, excluding the person or discriminating against them.

To create peace it is necessary to solve the problem of conflict, the problem of social order. A way to solve this problem is private property, but private property by itself cannot guarantee peace. (continued in the next premise)

Not all people have died, thus we cannot discount the possibility of immortality.

The probability of death (of the persons who are currently living) is not influenced by the amount of people who have died so far. As it stands, there are biological reasons for why humans have a finite lifespan. As long as these things are yet to be circumvented, man is mortal.

Democracy is flawed.

Democracy is, economically and morally speaking, inferior to the systems of monarchy and aristocracy that existed before it.

We should guarantee healthcare as a right of citizenship. It’s time for the U.S. to provide universal healthcare to all.

Taxation is theft. Theft is immoral. If the universal healthcare is financed through higher taxes, then doing so is morally unjustifiable.
