> Words like "unconditional", "universal", "everyone", "all", etc. absolutely imply that personal responsibility is not a factor.
If you think so, I think you're somewhat missing the point. Or arguing against one that isn't there.
To take your assertion to its logical end:
- system provides "universal" healthcare
- the above system therefore excuses personal responsibility for... healthcare access existing? I'm not really sure where this leads?
What you seem to be assuming is that an "irresponsible" actor impinges on service provision by virtue of their irresponsibility. Believe it or not, this is not an assumption rooted in reality. If it were, the US per capita healthcare budget would be much lower than that of France.
