Not the point. There will be some low income, low educated people to see the 6k as a reason to go for it just because of the money. Some low educated people do unfortunately think that way. Even so im still glad it will help people in need.

Regardless and more importantly, if we had socialized, single-payer medicaire for all, this 6k wouldn't even be necessary. I'd rather push for this than a one time cash payout. Since there will be hospital bills and insurance co-pays and whatnot for having a child, this 6k is almost an indirect subsidy directly to the insurance companies. And it's paid for by tax dollars.

And unfortunately single payer isn't even an issue discussed publicly any more.
