Competition or Monopoly
By Walter E. Williams

*** begin quote ***

What’s wrong with parents having the right, along with the means, to
enroll their children in schools of their choice?

*** end quote ***

Now I read WEW every Wednesday as soon as I get a chance. I was very upset for his backing down on the libertarian principle that “taxes are theft with violence”. (Don’t believe it just don’t pay a tax and see what happens. You could get killed!)

So I warmed up the poison keyboard and shot off a response.

*** begin quote ***

Forcing others to pay for it. They aren’t my children. I didn’t decide
to have them. I didn’t get any choices. Other than to pay my “fair share”!

Argh!

Cheers.
