[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I heard they're dropping Paid Leave from the BBB bill. Personally I think that and subsidized child care should go.

Focus on getting universal pre-school paid for which is formative for early education. I could take or leave community college. Child tax credits can stay but with an employment requirement and a limit on number of kids - I don't care of its a limit of 8 or 10 but SOME LIMIT in place. [/quote]

I think the community college one is one of the most important.  It gives people a path to save on university costs and builds up a hub to help the broader community.  So much could be done with it long term if the base funding is fixed.

Yeah, im down for a four kid limit on the kids credit.  Dont let it become a moneymaking scam like homeschool (some people take bigly advantage and give the legit homeschool parents a bad name).  I dont think conditionality is ever a good idea.  [/quote]

Conditionality? You mean the employment requirement?[/quote]

Yes.  Employment requirement and means testing.  If it's a public virtue then it should be universal.  Adding complexity adds costs, degrades the meaning/purpose, and transforms it from a public policy to a government handout.[/quote]
