| Message | Mr. Speaker, The notion that anything at all is free is absurd. Money is not an evil thing, and it is not to be sought after. It is merely a tool used for payment. Education is important, but the gov't is so arbitrary that it can never know exactly what education is needed. We vote for freedom, not despotism. Yield |

| Message | If someone is too poor to afford school, we need a free public school. Education is a primary right, everyone must have the possibility to be educated. And yes, the government is arbitrary, of course; but what is the reason that makes private schools not arbitrary? |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, Our local governments are best equipped to handle this. Yield. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker; The thing that makes a private system not arbitrary is it will do things that will make themselves more desirable and more competitive. I yield the floor |
