Nothing is free, but in the minds of many people if they do not have to pay for it directly then it is free. Some people understand this, some people don't. Either way, the viewpoint of the law is that if they don't have to directly pay for it, then it is free and if it is free it is not a substantial burden to voting. If it is not free, then it could be considered to be a burden to voting and therefore a violation of the law.
Your problem is with the court ruling and the interpretations since, not with me.
