I think the idea that food, shelter etc. are human rights is absurd. Doesn't that imply that someone must provide those things for me? What if they don't want to? Does that mean they are forced to? Which would be a violation of their human rights.
There are those who think that it's a government's responsibility to make sure that people don't die from starvation or lack of access to medical care. Then there are those who think it's OK to let people die in the gutter.
