Tim finishes reacting to the Katie Porter clip, discussing her free community college and university tuition proposal including for undocumented people, before transitioning to a broader point about school not being the answer.
- Tim doesn't oppose eliminating state income taxes for families under $100,000 funded by progressive corporate taxation.
- Katie Porter has some good ideas about helping people with less money, though she's abusive and cruel in a way Tim finds important.
- Workers getting overtime raises and moving into higher tax brackets is similar to what businesses should expect with progressive taxation.
- Porter's plan: two free years at community college paired with two free years at UC, CSU, or Cal Poly, with no qualifiers for undocumented people.
- Tim begins to critique school as the answer to economic problems before ending the segment.
