"Parental choice, parents choosing the teachers, parents monitoring the schooling," is Friedman's answer to the problem. In almost every case, giving individuals the power to choose, to set their own course, will lead to better results than centrally planned activity. That applies to schooling and every other activity in a modern society. Introduced by David Friedman. Discussion with Gordon Tullock, University of Arizona and Henry Levin, Stanford University.

mr1001nights: "Work for a boss or starve" seems to be your only argument. It's not even really an argument, it's simply a posture that you repeat over and over, as if repetition makes something more true. Address the third "work for yourself" option or STFU.

@mr1001nights so who enforces laws? Who tells people to share their goods?

I oppose government. Im an anarchist socialist

@mr1001nights So under socialism it's do the exact work the government tells you, or be force starved, or shot dead.  Under capitalism: work at a business of your choosing, so long as you have prepared yourself well.
