It's your land, so you decide what to build on it. Increasing the number of apartments competing for tenants would drive down rents, and increasing the number of factories competing for workers would drive up wages. This proposal would also cut the geographical barrier between work and home, a barrier that forces people to buy cars and drive. I proposed to eliminate involuntary commitments to mental institutions, which generated a few unkind jokes, but if these people have violated nobody's rights, the state has no right to lock them up. I proposed to repeal the compulsory school attendance statute, which in effect would eliminate government control over home schooling.
Truancy violates nobody's rights, so the government has no right to prohibit truancy.
I also proposed to replace public schools with home computers, equipped for parental controls, which would allow kids to search the Internet for educational materials and enjoy them. This would be far less expensive than the government-run indoctrination centres, and would allow the youngsters to enjoy whatever educational materials are produced by people who want nothing more than the pride of authorship. First and second grades would be retained, allowing the students to learn basic reading and writing, lest the monitor display be totally unintelligible to them. Two of these proposals would require police. If the pregnant minor seeks protection under my first proposal, an officer would have to bring her to the DCYF for placement in the foster home or charity of her choice, regardless of the objections of her parents.
