It's literally not a human right. It may or may not be a good idea as a government entitlement (either primary or as a last resort), but that has nothing to do with it being a right or not.
People like to label things they want as a "right", to confuse people who don't know what rights actually are ,or pretend that it's beyond debate.
Rights are restrictions you put on government. They prevent work, they don't create it. The exception is when the work to be done is created by government itself. eg, needing a defense attorney - government is placing you in that position (even if innocent), so you have a right to a lawyer.
The world disagrees with you. Certainly you won't find a consensus on things, but the closest we have is the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights, with the US among the signatories (and Eleanor Roosevelt leading the commission that wrote it), and no country voting against it. It includes healthcare, food, and education among human rights.
Given human rights are a concept created and defined by humans, what gives you the right to dictate to the rest of the world what can and can't be considered a right? And why do you even care? Calling something a human right doesn't change anything.
