Whenever I hear people saying they have a "right to free x service" I imagine them holding a gun to the person who has to do the work to provide them that service.

taxes are taken by force, and if you don't pay them your wages are forcibly garnished, and maybe jail.

Right, so the "gun to the head" characterization may be fitting for taxes, but not at all for the free services.
Taxes are taken from you; the "free" service, you are paid to provide. Paid with taxes, yes, but which already taken anyway. There's no *extra* force involved.
