And it would make sure that as you get older as a stay-at-home parent, you have your own pot for social security.
Stay-at-home parenting is the most invisible and unpaid labor, and it's absolutely ridiculous how we denigrate it.
So this needs to be where we start for universal basic income.
We need to ensure we're pouring federal funds into that, into our education system so your property taxes can go down and your child's education is not dependent on their zip code.
We need to be paying for universal pre-K, which helps lower crime rates, which increases your outcomes for every part of your life.
Like this, we can have all of this.
We can tax billionaires out of existence.
We can actually lower working class taxes if we effectively tax the rich in corporations.
We are thinking too small.
And if we are just going by the Democratic Party line, if we are just going by Hakeem Jeffries line, then we are going to get more and more incrementalism and keep going to the right.
And I promise you that I will hold people accountable because that's what I've been doing.
Don't listen to what I say.
Watch what I do.
