    The adage "There is no such thing as a free lunch" means people face trade offs.

    b. the cost of living is always increasing

    Explanation:

    It is said that people on welfare are getting free lunches but living on welfare has its own disadvantages that far outweigh the free lunch benefit.

    The cost of living is incredibly high and it is particularly hard when someone is poor, the free lunch comes with tax and other commitments that would not be there if the person would just not be in a welfare scheme and be living off of their own means which they cannot.
