The Toronto Star is running an article questioning TracFone’s assertion that everybody should have a cell phone, and it’s a corporate responsibility to provide one.

The Star gets it right when they lead into the article with an air of sarcasm.  Of course a cell phone is NOT a human right, but I think the Star needs another lesson in liberty.  The rest of the items on their list, food, shelter, and medical care, are things that that Star thinks the government should provide for all citizens.  When does it all end?

Apparently it’s OK for everybody to get food stamps, but a cell phone, nope.  Is it really that hard to see that people ought to be responsible for the food, shelter, and care of their own family?  Why is this neo-communist thinking so pervasive these days?
