Claim (5) is more interesting. People certainly seem to value free public education and healthcare highly (âThe NHS is the closest thing the English have to a religionâ). Many families that send their children to public school could afford to pay tuition, if they had to.
maybe you are talking about two different things:
valuing the product alone
valuing the product and its price as a package deal
people probably really like free health care because itâs health care and free. but that doesnât necessarily mean they value the health care they get for free as much as they would value the health care that they paid for, had they done that instead. it just means they value not having to spend any money on it.
