It basically is in a fairly straightforward way.
In the Declaration of the Independence it states thusly:
Since you cannot have Life without food, it would logically follow that it is the government's job to (secure these rights) food for people. If it does not, then the Declaration of Independence states that we can overthrow the government.
Really no. Are you squinting at the penumbra's? You have the freedom to pursue the production and ownership of food.
The Constitution doesn't say anything about who produces what. It just says that you have the right to those things, and that the states sole purpose is to ensure that.
