- Public school and forcing kids to go to school is incredibly harmful to children, parents, families, and society. Forcing children to go to school is completely unnecessary. - Mutual credit is a superior monetary system to our current one in every way: An elastic money supply, no bank runs, access to credit for everyone, no inflation, decentralized with no central bank, no moral hazard from seigniorage. - Advertising is a wonderful sustainable business model that benefits both the consumer and business. There is no privacy issue that causes anyone harm from advertising. - Business with large or complete market share is not bad at all or harmful to consumers, and the only true monopoly comes from government legally protecting a business from competition.

Wow! 100% agree on public schooling, I've witnessed it firsthand here during the pandemic. The kids were way better off without it. I'm feeling your other points too. It's funny how wrong we can be about such fundamental issues.

Forcing children to go to school is completely unnecessary The vast majority of parents are lazy, feckless and incapable of educating a child. Not to mention the character benefits of socialisation, conflict experience and discipline that might be met at school. I also refuse to believe that something as ancient as group schooling isn't inherently positive. There is a school in England that has been in active operation for 1400 years
