This comment is idiotic because you clearly doesn’t understand the minutiae of FAFSA. If you work minimum wage and live at home, your parent’s income is what qualifies you for financial aid, not yours.
Also, free community college can be limited to certain programs. Not everyone can get the degree or even start in a general direction of their desired career path for free. There’s a lot of red tape and this boils it down to person needing to work x amount of minimum wage to afford an average year of tuition.
