If that’s how you respond to legitimate questions about how to fund this proposal I don’t think your going to get very far with this.

To be fair, OP can't respond to this because they literally have no idea what they are doing or talking about.

I asked them what their proposal was, they don't have one. OP (based on post history) is just pissed because this issue suddenly impacts them in the last 2 - 3 months.

They want it free, everywhere, and high quality... and nfc how to do any of htat

They are obviously in the very first stages of trying to organize around an issue that deeply affects many people in this country. Just because she doesn't have a written proposal with a budget doesn't mean they can't work towards making positive change.

Should she not reach out to people to have discourse about this just because she doesn't know all the answers yet? Childcare and it's associated costs is a huge issue and financial burden in this country that needs to be addressed and people absolutely should be trying to find effective solutions to this crisis.

They are posting in a state forum with the first rule being "posts must be relevant to PA", recruiting people to go join non-pa subs is supposedly not supposed to be done, on a topic they have no idea what they are talking about, and trying to get people to join a call which isn't related to PA...

so no, she shouldn't be posting it in this forum without understanding how it in any way applies to PA unless it is specific to PA, according to the rules.

OP did say that they have people doing research. You don't have to have all the answers on day one. Not everyone was born knowing everything. Just some of you.

"hey, I'm starting up a movement, let's get together and discuss"

"give me all the answers now. Now. NOW!"

"Hey bruh, we literally just started, we don't have all the answers yet. We have some people working on it"

"I pulled a number out my ass that is 10x higher than the real data that exists! Poor people mumble mumble mumble, amirite?"

"lol, k"

And that's your response?

You think OP should just make up phoney numbers like the commenter did, rather than conduct actual research?

Just say you don't care and keep scrolling.
