You seem hell bent on focusing on the express language of the Constitution. You need to expand your horizons. While the black letter law expressly contained in the Constitution certainly does guarantee our rights....there is more that you are missing.

The U S Supreme Court has ruled that certain rights exist within the Penumbral areas of the Constitution. These are areas in which rights not expressly contained in the Constitution exist because they logically relate and flow from the expressly guaranteed rights. An example of this is the expansion of our Constitutional right to privacy, and relied upon in the landmark case of Griswold V. Connecticut which struck down a state statute criminalizing the dissemination of information on birth control. There was no right to this information expressly stated in the written words of the Constitution.

These Fundamental Rights have been found to exist within , but not limited to, the Privileges and Immunities Clause (e.g. the right to interstate travel), the Due Process Clause and the Commerce Clause although not expressly mentioned therein.

The U S Constitution is a living document that embraces not only the current needs of society, but also its future needs. The Ninth Amendment, The Necessary and Proper Clause  and the Fundamental Rights of the Penumbral areas are only some of the substantive and enabling tools.

While health care may not yet have been declared a Fundamental Right the door is certainly open to doing so...and the means to accomplish it are in place. There was a time when basic civil rights had not yet been recognized as Fundamental Rights Constitutionally guaranteed. you might find Loving V. Virginia to be interesting reading...particularly the last paragraph of the majority opinion. It gives a brief definition of a Fundamental Right.

Let us not also forget the Natural Law. This is law which is not expressly set down, but is so basic that you recognize something in contrast to it immediately as wrong. It was part of the underpinning for the Nuremberg Trials, and has evolved in international law of Human Rights.
