TODD: It\u2019s a very hard thing to fight against free stuff. It is a very difficult thing, \u2019cause people perceive things as free — and, of course, they want these things. Now, Rush wanted so much for people to experience the permanent joy of achievement versus the psychological sugar rush of free stuff<\/a>, because he knew that fake free leads to real dependence.<\/p>\n

RUSH: When you\u2019re obsessed with wanting things for free, who is it that promises to do that for you? The Democrat Party and the government. Free Obamacare, free health care, free food stamps. Of course, it isn\u2019t free, but to them they think it is. That\u2019s the first thing about it that bothers me.<\/p>\n

\"\"The second thing about it that bothers me is the expectation that people that invest and build out and build up ought to give away their product as a public service or some such thing? Whereas the easy answer is to go out, get a job, earn the money you want to be able to buy the things you want and the things that you need. The idea that\u2019s such a foreign concept marks a huge generational shift to me.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know, folks. Like I said, it\u2019s a pet peeve. Every time I read — and not just of the Millennials. When I read people demanding or expecting or celebrating that something is free, there\u2019s something about it that sends a red flag up. Something that gets my instincts highly attuned that this is not good, the expectation, the hope that something would be free, when nothing is.<\/p>\n

Well, that\u2019s actually not true. The moon\u2019s free. It\u2019s there for everybody. Nature\u2019s free. It\u2019s there for everybody. In fact, there was a Broadway tune that said, “The best things in life are free. They\u2019re there for you and me.” But you don\u2019t possess them. They are the delights of life, but you don\u2019t possess them. And to a certain degree that\u2019s true.<\/p>\n
