    No.

    In the case of the child, they are expected to earn their living upon adulthood. In the case of the disabled person they are expected to earn their living in the event of a suitable cure or accomodation.

    No one, neither me nor you has an inalienable right to be alive, how could we when it is a right that one day nature will in no uncertain terms, deny us?
    You might as well declare space flight a human right.

        Ok, prosecute all eight billion of us for the murder of the seventy million that died last year, see how that works out for you.

            Positive Vs. Negative rights, we’ve been talking about it this entire time. Saying “You can’t murder him” is different from “You can’t let him die”

                Then why does the UN let 60 million people die each year?

                  Are you seriously asking why the UN is unable to defy biological and medical science?

                    Yes

                    (but only rhetorically, I’m actually asking why you belive that some hypothetical future institution will be able to)
