They have the right to build a clinic if they want, but they do not have the right to make me design it for them. If the State forces me to provide services against my will, then it has made me into its slave. That is very different from regulations that govern the way in which services are performed in order to protect the public, like following building codes. The apologists for fascism cannot, or will not, make such distinctions. They will force equality on everyone by ax and saw.
You don't think right, do you? What shameless bootstrapping.
You have a right to decide which clients you will take and which you won't. You are free to accept or decline them as a client. But IF YOU TAKE THEIR MONEY AND AGREE TO PROVIDE YOUR SERVICES to build a clinic, then you have made a contract, and you are obliged to provide them with the building they want.
Or are you saying the state can force you to take them as a client? You'll have to show some proof that's happening. Pretty sure it isn't... not even in Illinois.
If you take money to do a job, then you are obliged to do the job as you are required to do -- even if it goes against your personal views. Really, the concept isn't that hard.
