Where did you pull "life, liberty and property" from? And in general what this means is that you're entitled to keep your life, liberty and property - i.e. not have others take it from you.
It doesn't mean that you're entitled to healthcare, to others' freedom or to others' property.
Well considering the US did in fact ratify the Universal Declaration of Human Rights:
Article 25
(1) Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control. (2) Motherhood and childhood are entitled to special care and assistance. All children, whether born in or out of wedlock, shall enjoy the same social protection.

Because its a society? You know that whole "community," watching out for each other, thing. Nor does it have to be "free." However pretending he owes "nothing" in return for everything that community, or nation in this case, has done for him? Whether he is a student or a CEO, its deluded, selfish, childish... Well, the most relevant word would vary depending on "why" he's pretending, of course.

dear god, please dont breed. your mindset is imo not fit for parenting. seriously. viewed that way, a child would never be an asset, but a liability until they are contributing to your coffers.
naive though i may be, i see money as a means to an end, not the end itself

Well if you don't have the laws on your side, anyone can take it from you. It's why we have laws against murder. The life/liberty/property is a quote from John Lock.
From Wiki:
"Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" is a well-known phrase in the United States Declaration of Independence. The United States Declaration of Independence, which was primarily drafted by Thomas Jefferson, was adopted by the Second Continental Congress on July 4, 1776[2] The text of the second section of the Declaration of Independence reads,
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness
The UDHR isn't a binding document. It's a wishy-washy document that is irrelevant in today's world. The US didn't ratify the actually significant part: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interna...ultural_Rights
