We used to give every kid free lunch if they want it.

I'm all for taxing the wealthy and they even prefer taxes over what I would want which is better wage distribution and a cap on corporate profit margins. If the actual money was distributed more evenly you wouldn't have to pass all these different extra taxes, there would be less people using social services and the economy would be more stable.

Not a bad idea if the funds are used appropriately. This is really what the lottery was supposed to do. At the end of the year there should be a report showing what the money was used for.

Massachusetts covers childbirth for little or no cost. Boston also has the second best Medical system in the world behind Tokyo. I hope a lot of those funds go towards some of the bridge infrastructure, which would improve things greatly, and towards some better service programs in underfunded communities

The shyt is blown way out of proportion, renters rights, public infrastructure, and a surplus refund. After being back in Texas I’m ready to head back to MA.
