Means Testing from My Cow! by The Michael Character

Means testing is a bullshit way

To kneecap effective social provision

Fill out a million forms

Prove you’re the right kind of poor

And jump through administrative hoops

That serve as one further deterrent for you to get your due

While needless bureaucracy

Leaches away the funds for food or health or housing, yeah!

Talk about grifting, excess, waste

Yeah, there’s only one good way to guarantee the social wage

Say it with me: universal programs!

The kind that everyone can access when they need a hand



I’ll take Medicare for All over a patchwork public/private shitshow

And well resourced public housing over vouchers and you know

I’d rather make a real commitment to make every public school be great

Than open up the public purse for any grifting charter (school) hand to take (from)
