Uncle Sam Is The New Rumpelstiltskin

Uncle Sam is the new Rumpelstiltskin because he makes deals with the American people promising something for nothing that ultimately has to be paid in the end.

For college students, Uncle Sam literally takes their first born child because college graduates are so burdened with student loan debt that they put off getting married and having children they can not afford.

In all instances where Rumpel Sam makes a deal to give something for nothing (housing, medical care, education) the costs of those pillars of the American dream rise two to five times faster than the normal rate of inflation.

Why does Rumpel Sam make such deals?  

Because lobbyists in all three of the aforementioned sectors want to inflate the costs of their services in order to reap huge profits that they otherwise would not see in a true free market system.
