Is there something like free lunch?

Conventional wisdom claims that there is no such thing as "free lunch", which means that every act, no matter how selfless or generous, it may seem, carries some hidden costs or obligation. These hidden costs may be an arrangement on the Quid Pro quo, in which the recipient is “free” services or other benefits are obliged to repay the donor to the donor later. Another result of the "free lunch" arrangement could be an obligation to pay for more expensive services or product. For example, if companies on mobile phones offer potential customers, for example, a "free" phone, there is often a condition that requires a multi -annual contract for required services. Salon owners would often drum business by offering a free lunch to anyone who entered their facilities. These lunch offers ranged from basic sandwiches to sophisticated seafood and steakytalíře. The catch was that the recipients of this "lunch free" had to buy at least one alcoholic beverage at the full price. ForBy doing so, some customers dealt with this request, most agreed to the condition placed on their free lunch. The price of the drink was becoming cheaper than the equivalent costs of such food in the restaurant.

The feasibility of free metaphorical lunch is often expanded into economics and politics. Many experts again agree that there is nothing like free lunch in terms of world macroeconomics. For example, grain donated to the country affected by drought can save its population from starvation, but manufacturers of this grain must still absorb the cost of production, storage and delivery. Obviously, there is no really free lunch if there are expenditures somewhere. However, it can also be argued that gifts of food saved the whole workforce from starvation to death and their contributions to the world economy would far beyond the cost of maintaining them alive until they could recover from the droughta.

Although you are thinking in the most suitable way, it is very difficult for each organization to provide a really free lunch. Recipients of material and financial assistance from non -profit or governmental assistance programs can be strongly urgent to contribute the equivalent "sweat capital" to gain ongoing benefits. Religious organizations can provide the necessary food, clothes and shelter, but they could also ask the recipient to participate in religious services to get relief. None of these conditions could be considered disproportionate, but they are conditions.

In this case, it could be conventional wisdom correctly. Although we hope that truly "free lunch" for the world's most needed populations can still be a commendable goal, there are economic, political and social realityes that are currently making it difficult to implement such a program on a global scale.
