The FREE STUFF in the American marketplace is mostly offered as promotional gambits by private companies and corporations hoping to boost sales. Perhaps the Federal Government gets the bad press about it, but it is a red herring to use in political ads, memes, and in campaign literature. We all know that all stuff has costs and that the ensuing sales will be price-adjusted to recoup the costs.

Something that is given to you without you having to pay for it.
And in the governments instance, taken from anothers labor.

There is more than one mantra in your posting but I am unable to discern the message you are trying to make, if you are attempting to make a point. The issue of free goods has its root in economic history and seems to have avoided debate. Free stuff has both commercial and political overtones but does not get much traction because offers of 20% more free toothpaste, for example, are not asking for commitment. Ironically, one arch-conservative suggested that drinking from a mountain spring does not make the water free because the land belongs to someone.

You can create of lot of free stuff when you create $7 trillion dollars out of thin air over the past 15 years!
Just think what I could buy with my own printing press!

My second mantra pretty much speaks for itself!
