RE: Left Leaning Liberals and Proponents of Socialism will often offer things like Free Education for All... Medicare/aid for all, etc.

I live in a country with free education and healthcare.

I don't believe you. In fact I state it is not possible.

Do your doctors make money to pay for things?

Do the people that produce medicine charge someone money?

Who pays for that?

If you say the government then I suggest you reread my post.

How does a government pay for things when they produce nothing? Typically the answer is taxes. If you pay taxes and they use those to pay for you education and healthcare then it is not FREE.

In fact you pay for healthcare and education in that case whether you use it or not, as I assume you can't just stop paying taxes.
