"Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, along with leaders in education, business, labor and workforce development, today launched the nation’s first program offering tuition-free college to an estimated 625,000 Michiganders ..."

"The program is a $24M investment funded by Governor’s Education Emergency Relief (GEER) Fund ..."

Yup, that should about cover the costs.

Somehow by “frontline workers” I don’t think she means cops and firefighters. Another giveaway to the community organizer crowd methinks.

24,000,000 / 625,000 = $38.40.

Doesn’t even cover the cost of a single textbook.

Gov. (Gretchen Whitmer Alinsky)....promise them free education...part of being a Socialist Society....the only way this power hungry governor can pay for this is to rob you through taxes.

True rhetoric....Freedom is not free...

So where are these workers going to work? She has wrecked the MI economy to the tune of a half a million jobs. Where are these future front-liners working?

So the people who had employment, weren’t subject to direct loss due to government orders, THOSE people get extra benefit.

Meanwhile, the people forced to stay home get bupkiss on top of bupkiss.

The US unemployment rate was down to 8.4% for August and I suspect that she may not quite understand who the essential workers are.

(The money might be better spent on non-essential workers, to make them essential.)

By turning the KungFlu onto a whole range of welfare programs they ensure that it will never go away. Get used to it.
