>> Historically our laws have not required us to help each other out.

If I am forced to help you out in any way, it is potentially an invasion of my freedom. That's not say I shouldn't help you out but that is my decision, not someone else's.

The idea that another person can command me to do something isn't addressed by the Bill of Rights I don't believe; but it would be contrary to the fundamental premise of freedom -- that I may be called away from watching the NFL game and forced to labor on someone else's behalf seems a little counter-intuitive.
