“As a principal matter, the question is, do parents want to have as much liberty to raise, educate, and nurture their children apart from state intervention? Or do we want to be kind of a part of the mob, a part of using state money to educate our kids?” —Jim Mason
Jim Mason joins Robert Bortins on Episode 139 of Refining Rhetoric to discuss which choice is better: independence or intervention? Through their dialogue, they discuss the history behind the school choice movement, the bureaucratization of private schools with public dollars, and the value of voluntary private philanthropy over forced wealth redistribution.
Mason, along with HSLDA and likeminded organizations, has defended education independence for decades because he understands the danger of state intervention in education and the value of choosing education independence.
