That's right Claire. Grab them while they are young and ignorant. Don't wait until they pay the taxes you say we don't have, or put up with the beauracratic baloney you shovel our way. The youth had better wise up, before they find themselves living in Russia.

Typical Femocrat strategy. Go on about the money, the loans, the grants each will receive but don't mention the little hidden details about which particular group(s) will get more and which one gets shut out. And never mention who will actually pay for it.

Claire needs to go.
