The lesson behind this bill is that work/school isn’t important. You don’t need to work, everything should be free and paid for by higher taxes on the rich! If we raise taxes on a handful of rich hedge fund managers we can have free education, mass transit, healthcare, water, housing, childcare and a guaranteed minimum income with a generous pension! It’s a monstrous lie, but it gets votes for the Democrats so the lie will be repeated until enshrined.
As a former co-workers once told me, being a responsible person means going to school or work even when you don’t feel like it.
