What would the negros in the southern US do if not pick cotton? Clothing is a right, after all. Someone has to do it, and they can, so why did we decide to end slavery?

The difference between slavery and freedom, is a mutually beneficial exchange, and one that isn’t. You claiming that things that require the human time of others to produce, are human rights, lets you violate the rights of others, which always leads to massive human suffering.

Governments “paying for it” is the government stealing from one person to pay another…it’s still theft, just less personal.

Someone else being forced to buy something for you, “because they can afford it,” is still theft, you just don’t have the balls to do it yourself. You hire out the dirty work to the government to shake down your fellow man.

Please, try to understand that only you belong to yourself, and I, myself. Only if we want to exchange our talents, where it benefits us both, can we have a peaceful and just world.
