Dad voice:

Do we want innovation and increased prosperity instead of crime? Because this is how we get innovation and increased prosperity.

Send kids who started at a disadvantage to free college, you're gonna get innovation and increased prosperity. There's no getting around it. It's gonna make everyone better off. I hope that's what California wants, because that's what they're going to get.
