You are failing to distinguish between a "right" and an entitlement.
Something like the "right to free speech" or "right to keep and bear arms" are things that you can do which the government is not allowed to interfere with.
An entitlement, for example food or water, is something which another entity has an obligation to provide you.
We got into this current welfare mess by subscribing to the idea that "society" is under obligation to provide resources to people, without the recipients being under any obligation to offer anything in exchange.
The problem with Enough food, water, housing and medical care as rights is that is that in the context of the article they must be provided by someone else. One might have a right to stroll down to the lake for a bucket of water, but not necessarily for purified water delivered to his door at someone elses expense.
OK tough guy
