THERE it is! Can you spot the dead giveaway in C-SPAN's poll question about 'free' education & health care?

C-SPAN’s Washington Journal ran a poll over the weekend, and here’s how it’s worded:

Would you pay more in taxes in exchange for free education & health care?

You know, something just doesn’t add up with how that’s worded:

"Pay more"
"Free"
If you're paying more…it isn't free. ? pic.twitter.com/5n3sV3i9fa

Wait, is “free” not really “free”? Shocker!

Um … if it is "FREE" then why would I have to "pay more in taxes"? That is not how FREE works people https://t.co/GlbaHxZAsa

Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and other Dems appreciate anybody who doesn’t understand that.

C-SPAN: "Would you *pay more* taxes for *free* education & health care?"

You keep using that word, I don't think it means what you think it means. https://t.co/uSdCpcJyUn

Ehrm….taxes followed by “in exchange for free…”? I feel like there’s an oxymoron in there somewhere. ? https://t.co/eUuZNYCLqo

And yet, those who use it in their “plans” seem to get plenty of support, as evidenced by the fact that over half of respondents answered “yes” to the question.
