Every man woman and child should be guaranteed food, water, and housing as a minimum.
The problem with that seems to be that the more a government system tries to provide these things, the worse the market becomes, which ironically makes it less probable that every man, woman and child gets those things.
(Except water. That’s a natural monopoly when done properly by utilities, so that can and should be provided by government.)
Dunno if that’s the steelmanned position of the republican lady, but it could be.
