<Describe for me, please, where in the Constitution it says that a right of citizenship is basic healthcare?>

Where in the constitution does it say there must be public schools paid for by every taxpayer? It doesn't.

Where does it say in the constitution there should be something along the lines of social security and medicare?

It doesn't.

Where does it say there should be national highway system paid for by taxes?

I doesn't.

Where does it say in the constitution that the government can stop a woman from having an abortion, to block stem cell research, or for that matter prevent people form smoking pot?

It doesn't.


<Our Constitution is made up of negative rights, WHAT THE GOVERNMENT CANNOT DO TO YOU. You turn it on its head when we have a right to ENTITLEMEMTS from the government.

Your remedy: Amend the Constitution. >


I assume you mean the Bill of Rights, not the constitution per se. In total, the constitution and all the amendments do set limits to guarantee rights. However, they also give the federal government powers to promote the common good in a variety of ways not directly spelled out an subject to interpretation.
