<div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block">I don't know whether the government offering free things is a good idea. Let's assume that it can sometimes be a good thing.

What are some things that the government could offer for free?

<div class='public-DraftStyleDefault-block'>I&#x27;m not sure if any of these are a good idea but perhaps we can start a conversation or spark another idea.</div>

<div class='public-DraftStyleDefault-block'>Most of us &quot;spend&quot; a large part of our incomes on paying taxes to the government. But what value do we get in return for this spending? We do have plenty of established benefits. For one, the taxes pay for the maintenance and security of the country. It also pays for enforcement of laws, public services like libraries and schools, government employees to keep all of the paperwork and records in order, the salaries of our politicians, the military, and the legal system, among many other things.</div><div class='public-DraftStyleDefault-block'>But what else can the government offer that it doesn&#x27;t already?</div>

<div class='public-DraftStyleDefault-block'>First off - nothing is &quot;free.&quot; We are paying for programs via taxes. I&#x27;m making a list for the US.</div>
