    That isn’t contradictory with what that person said.

    Things have costs, even things that are free at point-of-service. Often, those costs are worth it. It’s not as if they said that any use of tax money for any purpose is a horror.

      Oh shit, blast from the past. Haven’t heard this libertarian talking point in a while.

      Every time someone gets a free beer, the libertarians point out that there is no such thing as free beer. Except that’s not true: They don’t mind free beer usually, it’s almost always some social program that’s “not free”. Hey guess what: Everybody already knows that vaccines do not grow on trees. No need to explain this. Libertarians just hate social programs because they are selfish pricks rugged individuals.
