Our definition of rights centers about NONINTERFERENCE -- that is, we have no right to labor or goods of others, only the right to be left unmolested. I may have a right to have a weapon but it is up to me to earn enough to buy it or to make it.

Your definition of the right to health care depends on the ability to commandeer labor of medical professionals or funds needed to buy that labor. In short, right to food, health care, anything else, as defined in the UK, centers around an entitlement at the expense of others. Or am I misunderstanding you?
