If you just do the math on a napkin, that's thousands of dollars for every household in this country. So don't tell me if we can afford to do that. If we can afford tax breaks for the richest people in this country who are already doing just fine. Don't tell me we can't afford to pay public employees, public school teachers, public school support staff an adequate wage. Thank you. First of all, thank you. (40:15–40:21)
