In my case, it converted me from a classical liberal bothered by the
problem of where even a limited state got the right to make morally
binding laws to an anarchist. That's why Heinlein is one of the
people my first book was dedicated to.

Someone else in the thread raises the problem of children wasting
their time at school. That's why our go to a Sudbury school, where
they control their own time--Becca spends most of hers reading. For
