      Schools run by communist parties funded by robbing banks when?

      You know this is starting to sound like a good idea

        No need to rob banks. With school choice, your kids can use their voucher at the new Materialist school.

          How much average socially necessary labour-time does a kid get for a day's school?

            Depends on how much pig iron they make at the playground smelter.

    Just a reminder that one of the first experiments by early neoliberalism was the attempt to co-op segregationists against school integration by popularizing Public Choice Theory to destroy the public schooling system. They didn't fall for it because of how popular public schools were, but after decades of propaganda, here we are.

      You know I'm often surprised that conservative sentiment about home schooling and school choice only bends in this one direction. You'd think conservatives would want a locked down, tightly managed surveillance apparatus on children with a rigorous focus on propaganda, but no. The sentiment is education simply falls to the responsibility of the children's parents and no one else, even if the parents are like gay furry communists who do a pledge of allegiance to a portrait of Huey Newton every morning.

      I think maybe conservatives have trouble imagining an education that's even further left than what currently exists in public schools.

      You can do whatever you want so long as I get to collect rents when you do it. Also, I have the right to refuse service for any reason.

      Also, plus, too I own everything because I have a contract that says I do. If you disagree, I can kill you.

    This phrase stresses me.

      Yeah like if the education curriculum was properly funded and managed, why would you need to choose a school? Does one school teach normal math and the other teaches Pythagorean mysticism?

      Oh right conservatives actually only care about sending their kids to majority white schools.

    They can't indoctrinate your children if you choose how to indoctrinate your children. :think-about-it:

      So, hypothetically, I've joined a cult at age 30 but I'm the only black guy. Anyway, how would a libertarian solve this problem of CRT?

    Now if only we could separate these students. Maybe with a line of some sort. Maybe a red one?

    Now does the biology course come with the evolution package or does that cost extra?

      On the campaign trail he distributed “Tuccille bills” — fake dollar bills that, he assured voters, would soon be worth more than the real thing, given the country’s ruinous economic policies. He arranged for a woman in a beige body stocking to ride through Central Park like Lady Godiva, on a horse named Taxpayer.

      man libertarians are so unhinged
