The concert on the Esplanade in Boston on the 4th of July is another example of a huge population placing a lot of value on something they get for free.

Don't know about that one. Who pays the musicians?

Irrelevant. The product is free to the audience and they value it just as much as they would a rock concert they paid big bucks for, and that's the whole point. Doesn't matter if it's taxes, or direct subsidy as in Europe.
