Be careful with how you throw around your "not very American at all" claims.

America is a big place. It is unwise to presume you know all of it.

In my part of it, most of us think letting people die of privation due to misfortune and societal factors outside their control in such a wealthy society is cruel and foolish (read history to understand why it is foolish). In my part of America, most of us also think letting random individuals own weapons constructed purposely for killing multiple humans quickly is absolutely insane.

YMMV

And your part of America is free to pass all the social safety net programs for your part of America and to tax your part of America to pay for it.

We don't need to create a social safety net at the federal level. Prove that the idea works at the state level before you trying to scale half-baked ideas to the whole country.
