Freedom, most won't understand what I mean by this, but it's the truth.

Very true. Freedom is so expensive. Not everyone is lucky to have it or lucky enough to experience it.

If I had to pick a reasonable one, it would be electricity...

Food. I'm not big on the whole socialism thing or giving everything away from free, but we are at a point in civilization and technology where no one should be starving. I'm not saying give everyone a free pass on everything. I'm not saying have everyone depend on the government or w/e. Just food. Everyone should have food. If you take the ridiculous amount of money this government is robbing from us, and you put a small fraction of it toward this one cause, it would be easily solved. If you take away the government corruption, excessive spending, foreign aid, etc. we would live in a country full of mostly incredibly wealthy people. Everyone who owns a business or works at all, even the lowest of jobs, would be very well off. This country should be thriving in ways most of you couldn't imagine with how things are now, but a few greedy corrupt people over the past several decades have ruined that for millions.

Good post but corruption is a good thing and it is needed in countries. Every country is corrupt in the world. I do agree with you on the food but ,I am all for corruption.

Divorce and rights to your own children. Biggest crime and scam in the US is family court and judicial rule. It should be a low fee administrative rule defaulting to 50/50 split and 50/50 custody unless there is a waiver of rights or contract. No one should have to pay thousands to separate and have a chance at raising their kids!

I agree with this too.. Healthcare and medical insurance.

Nothing is free because work is required from someone to produce.

Only when robots can do it all for us

Easy... Healthcare.

I see how "good" Canada and Europeans have it and think, we should too. The US is the only developed country that allows people to go bankrupt and become homeless due to healthcare bills. That is messed up.

$2.00 for free air feels pretty expensive, even if it's just two dollars, and it's Free Air...

Nope.. Here's a perfect example of money buying piss poor quality.

Don't go cheap but don't take the most expensive ones either.

Totally agree with Tank here. My senior citizen parents, who worked hard all their lives, paid off their mortgage, nice home on an acre and a half, have some retirement pensions, and a fair amount of savings, are still always forced to worry about heath care bills.

That was my parents as well. They bled through their retirement savings paying for healthcare.

That’s called “dumb money” I disagree completely.
