You’re right. I’m only saying that Robert Reich’s framing “there’s money for” this not that isn’t great: it’s like saying “Oh so we have money for a new blender but not a car???”
Tbph this is why Reich has a reputation for kind of populist pseudoscience. Tries to bank on sounding like he’s pushing an “economic justice” angle but a ton of what he says doesn’t really hold water. It’s actually really annoying cause you can’t push for a correct take without people just automatically assuming you’re defending CEOs and megacorps.

It’s because he positions himself as an economic expert despite having no degrees in economics
Looked it up when you replied, he does have some kind of multidisciplinary degree that sort of covers it. Not that it really changes anything.
