You just don't get it. My retirement and benefits  wasn't free---it was earned . Free is when you do nothing to get something. Earned is when you work many years to get what you receive . Money came out of every paycheck of mine to pay for what I get today.  My point addressed the larger issue .  That issue is that far too many feel they are OWED their next meal , owed free medical benefits , free college etc.   Nothing is free----someone has to pay for it .  This might be costing taxpayers something---won't the dentists time be considered a tax write off , meaning they will pay less to support America ? it's not against Christian values to ask the strong and able to help themselves .  The Lord helps those who help themselves.
