962 Subsidize Schooling

20-05-2021

It's in society's interest to ensure citizens are educated, at least so that they can interact with others and with business; to be able to take care of themselves with the least amount of government intervention. What form that education takes is immaterial; there's no reason students should be forced to a particular timetable, location, grouped by age, or forced to engage in propaganda they disapprove of. Making all of those things choices means the best way to handle education is with Markets because education is a product. There's no reason for government to be in the education business; in fact, it's dangerous, as proven by the shift in only one generation from liberty to egalitarianism which was only possible because of public indoctrination in schools.

The virus lockdowns proved that education can be done in people’s homes, no need for traditional brick & mortar buildings, classrooms, textbooks, police, hall monitors, and exploitation by public employee unions. Education can demonstrably be accommodated by Market Forces so why is it still being run by government? Of course, government is responsible for funding schools, and just like infrastructure, that responsibility should be performed by private companies because it can be. Government-subsidized schooling rather than government-run schooling would focus on the students rather than the system.
