Health Care in America should be just as much of a "Fundamental Right" as carrying your precious guns. In fact, more.

As long as there is one homeless person in this country, one starving child, one American without Health Care... "The American Dream" will remain a myth.
"Health Care" wasn't in the constitution last time I looked. Second amendment to the constitution gives Americans the right to bear arms. The American Dream is alive and has been for over 200 years, where as the socialist utopia that you describe has been tried many times and failed. Please remember that the USA feeds many people throughout the world including some of your utopia failures.
