For example, the United States is the only major country on earth that doesn’t guarantee healthcare to all people as a right.

That's because it is NOT a right. One never has a right to compel the services of another person. (unless you are a homo and need a cake, or flowers, or photos)

Well by gosh he’s sure gonna promise to try and make it one. Sadly, too many enlightened entitled people think it is a right since they’ve been lied to for so long now. Kinda like ebt and unemployment and a “living wage” are rights. Uh, NOT! How about you work two jobs if that’s what it takes to advance your life. How about you actually WORK your way through college. So it takes 6 or 7 years to get your degree. Maybe some valuable life skills could be learned doing it that way. Oh, wait. Community college should be “free” for everybody. UPOS. Ain’t nuthin’ “FREE”!

Excellent point! Too many lib's confuse the word "right" with the word "benefit". A right is something you are born with. A benefit is something that you have (ideally) earned.
