Should America privatize its education system?
"Can you explain the statement "some people implicitly 'need' to be 'schooled'"? I am interpreting it in a variety of contradictory ways and could use clarification."
I might be repeating myself here, but oh well.
I probably didn't w ord that statement clearly enough. I meant to say that when schools and public schooling are brought up, some people think that there are things kids "need" to be taught at school, or the parent needs to be the "teacher" in order for them to learn this. Some people even think that having the parent be a "teacher" could lead to disaster. This argument is used to make the case for public schooling; if parents need to send their kids to school, why not make schooling compulsory and provide subsidized schools? Even if it is better if everyone went to a formal school, liberterians can make the case that public schools should be abolished, as it would make schools While parents putting their kids in school, whether they like it or not, is compatible with a liberterian society, I have a personal opinon of the practice. I disagree with the idea that there are things that kids "need" to be taught at school, as learning is effective when people use schooling as a means to explore things that interest them.
Schools are labour camps.
