but they DONT have legitimite taainos, if the law allows them to qualify for the benefits. do they have taainos on college students who qualify? nope. and like someone said, learning Torah is an education towards working as a teacher, rabbi, author, religious worker, etc. etc. (and even if that wouldnt have been the case, they would legally qualify and no one can have a legitimate taaina.)
