I'll tell you why it's considered a right. Because IT IS SO CONSIDERED.
All we have to do as Americans for something to become our right, is to declare it so. We have that freedom. And we have a government that, by design, exists to support the general welfare. That's one of the guiding philosophies of America, enshrined in the preamble to the Constitution as a duty of the government We the People form on our behalf.
What is necessary to support the general welfare is something that evolves, and I think it's finally evolving to a right we Americans declare for and demand.
