The Texas state pledge
Re: ...

It costs nothing to "provide" the right to free speech. (It can cost money to exercise it, depending on whether you wish to simply speak in person, publish in print, or on the internet.)
It costs nothing to "provide" the right to freedom of assembly. You choose who you want to associate with. (You may incur costs in doing so, such as travel expenses.)
It costs nothing to "provide" the right to keep and bear arms. (You may incur costs to exercise that right, such as time and effort to satisfy firearms licensing requirements and of course to purchase a weapon.)
All of these are recognized as basic human rights by the Constitution. All of them cost the individual money, time, and effort to exercise. In what way is a "basic human right to health care" different?
What you are asserting is a "basic human right" not to health care itself, but to the time and effort of those who provide it, without compensation thereunto. --
