MPs are more interested in education policies than in childcare programs. The MPs propose that we should eliminate the higher education debts of women. In line with the human capital model, what is the expected effect of this on the educational attainment of women who already left education at different levels (e.g. middle school, high school, university)? Why do you expect such an effect?

What makes the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) different from other poverty-fighting programs? The amount of the credit is doubled if the head of household is attending college. The tax credit is phased out gradually, rather than at a specific income cutoff point. The amount of the credit is not determined by the number of dependent children in the household. The EITC doesn't require the recipient to pay a minimum amount of income tax in order to receive the credit. It creates less of an incentive to work than other programs.
