"The Federal Government does not provide free public school education or free unlimited medical care. If these services are provided, it's by State and Local Governments."

You are technically correct, these "free" services are provided by the state taxpayers - under federal MANDATE!
Without federal compensation.

Give-away programs (free health care, education, social services) are costing the states billions and raising all our taxes!

I'm not about to defend Federal Mandates. Frankly, if they aren't unconstitutional, they should be.
