Being able to read and write helps and that seems to be best provided by universal primary education, which does seem to be provided as a right in the US (even though it is not guaranteed by the constitution).

Being healthy also helps and that seems to be best provided by universal free at point of use healthcare, which is not provided as a right in the US.

Why should you get one 'free' and the other not? After all the education also has to be paid for by someone else.
