There Is No Such Thing As A Free Lunch X X

Congressman Bernie Sanders promises free things to his voters, but his voters and him don't seem to understand the term 'free.' This brings me back to the old saying that goes 'There is no such things as a free lunch.' Everyone who supports Bernie needs to read and seriously think about this phrase, because the 'free' that Bernie promises is anything but free. With more government control, more government programs, and more government money going to things like university tuition and healthcare, taxes are going to skyrocket. I mean, the money has to come from somewhere. The professors, administrators, and government officials over education need to get paid; and the government is never known for doing things effectively and cheaply. Plus, the healthcare professionals and doctors need to get paid and that money has to come from somewhere. But, many of Bernie's supporters and Bernie himself don't seem to understand this fact. Yes, I might get free university tuition, but I will be paying exorbitant taxes. Not to mention, we are giving much more power to the government over our health and education. This is scary to me. All these poems are taken straight from Bernie Sanders' twitter. I changed none of the spellings, grammar, or wording. The only thing I did was add line breaks to give the tweets a feeling of free verse poetry.
