As we have seen by continuous research and documented cases, loneliness is a serious life threatening condition. No man should have to look and beg for a friend.
Loneliness increases the risk of suicide,alcoholism,drug use and overall loss of health and well being. It creates depressed and people with less quality of life.
As such I believe that we should have a right to friendship. A committee should be set up to discuss budgets and future course of actions.
A right to friendship will have lots of benefits and it will greatly help the common good. People with more friends remain happy and generally don't suffer serious diseases or medical conditions that can put a cost on our health care. It also creates a sense of community and altruism in people which helps with the goal of economic equality. plus more friendships will mean less crimes , less domestic abuses and better standards of living for everyone. Our HDI Index will jump into the sky.
As such I propose that there should be a RIGHT TO FRIENDSHIP. We must immediately create a 'Department of Befriending' and add the said right to the constitution.
Surely this is parody.
Freedom of markets is positively correlated with the degree of evolution in any society...
*Satire*. Since there is a right to health care and high speed internet . But now my revelation kind of ruins the joke.
step 1) Start befriending people (atleast 2 /day) you do not know on myspace and facebook - this will be required by law.
step 2) All "friend requests" on the internet must be accepted - facebook should remove the stage where one has to accept.
step 3) Start community plantations where people of the community could pick cotton together whilst befriending each other - this will be done without compensation, for the sake of solidarity and the common good.
step 4) War - this will be the final, and concluding step, there's no better way of making friends, when you're in the army together, you'll become friends.
You're doing it all wrong. The lonely people are supposed to endure involuntary admission into a psychiatric ward under the false pretense of brotherly love.

I propose a recommendation that we set up an interdepartmental committee with fairly broad terms of reference so that at the end of the day we would be in a position to think through all the implications of this so-called 'department of befriending' and then take a well founded decision based on long-term considerations rather than rush prematurely into precipitate and possibly ill-conceived action that might well have unforeseen repercussions.

This is no laughing matter. Loneliness is now an epidemic that's mercilessly killing and raping everything in its path. It has a mind of its own, and induces loneliness on articles about loneliness (see absence of comments and ratings). It's the scourge of our age!
I prefer the right to secede from the laws of gravity be enforced. After all, that theory was constructed by the logic of a bourgeoisie, Newton, so it must be false.

Lol. Really funny because I've been reading the "attack on reason" section of Human Action

I thought it would be a very dry book. I'm randomly reading sections from it. I usually get a really good laugh every chapter or two when I think up stuff like that. He usually provides an example of an absurdity or contradiction of some incorrect theory, and I just can't help but imagine a few more examples just because it makes me laugh. Mises is awesome.
I can't help but be reminded of Bill Hicks' People Who Hate People Club.
"Are we going to have a meeting Friday?"
"No if you are going to be there."
"Damn!"
There should be a right to... carnal relations.Voluntary association and the free market have obviously failed to universalize this service.

Oddly enough, that example in the distant past helped me to realize the insanity of guaranteeing universal rights to people.

This will artificially inflate the demand for friendship and create a friend bubble. When the bubble pops mass homicide will ensue.
I will be on my lawn with popcorn and a shotgun safely watching the whole event at a distance. Come on over and bring some beer!
Perhaps forced prostitution should be termed "national selective sexual services provision". Breeding programs can be termed as "social family planning". Mandatory sexual provision will be termed "public sexual services". This stuff really writes itself.

Snowflake: Government always screws up the things it tries ... but if the government got into the sex business it would ruin that too. I almost kind of want them to nationalize sex to see how badly they can mess it up. I mean, how would you ruin sex? I bet people would support it and condemn voluntary sex? Kekeke.

In a way they are. Religion, morals, bourgeois principles, family, non-consent from the populace, these are all just barriers to their ultimate goal. Pleasure, but not necessarily sexual pleasure psychological pleasure in planning and in the realization of power over people and their actions.
