So if it is a right, do they still have to pay for it?
Do you pay for clean water here?

Good point. I pay a flat rate however. I could use a cup a month or fill a 100,000 litre water tank and the price paid is the same.
All part of my municipal taxes.
So... you're entitled to healthcare, education and internet, but not basic necessities such as food and shelter. Sounds about right for our society.
Nobody says that. Just because that is not mentioned as an example in the article, doesnt mean they are no right.

Same here, but not when I lived in the Netherlands.
The right to internet is not that you have to use it, but when you want to, you should be able to.
You have the right to clean drinking water here (or so I hope...), but you still have to build your own well when you live rural

But there isn't. No where is it written (anywhere that I know of) that everyone is entitled to a meal every day. Just seems screwed up that they'd put a right to internet use in writing.

You should talk to the people in Walkerton about that.
Canada's worst-ever E. coli contamination

The problem with that is that "we" will have to feed every mouth in the world, and that trades are being screwed up. Apparently, you cannot put that in writing by country.
Internet, education and healthcare are different issues, apparently...
