This whole idea of a free lunch is propaganda put forth by the plutocrats who control the country right now. You need to try and think in a little more sophisticated manner. That is nothing but a talking point that the plutocrats keep feeding to the uninformed to keep taxes down so they don't have to pay anything to support society.

Taxes are the cost of civilization. The Nordic countries function well because they have high taxes and a large government that helps the people and nation and as a result they are much more sophisticated and happy society.

In the Nordic countries they have few rich and few poor and a large healthy well-to-do middle-class. That is amuch better for society. The plutocrats of whom the Republican Party has been carrying water for 50 years have managed to take so much of our country's wealth, steel so much of the natural resources this country has to offer that we are now 65th in the world in income inequality.

We are poor because the plutocrats have all the power and you want to give them more!

That is scandalous and very hard on a society as taught in any sociology 101 class in the world!

No free lunch. Hillary already stated she's going to tax the middle class.
