| Message | "This is the voice of reason. All these new proposals shows that anarchy is coming to an end. We see this as a good first step out of the chaos which has lasted for over 50 years." |

| Message | "School isn't necessary, but we respect those people who wants to go to school and we will keep them, so if you want to go, you can. And if not, don't go." says Landon Hollis, after thinking about the problems of this education 'system'. "It's not a thing of ideologies, we all hate schools and compulsory education sucks. I'm not the only one who says this, ask any children who is a prisoner of teachers and authorities. Afortunately, we don't respect that and we give freedom to kids, to enjoy their time playing videogames, or at the streets with their friends. Isn't that nice?". |

| Message | I don't agree with LSPs desire to create a society of midless, uneducated grunts. Education should be at minimum strongly encouraged and at best mandated. |

| Message | Uhm, yes, give us an example of an education with mandatory schools - and with private education that could work. People don't learn through punishments (and law enforcement), bored classes and authoritarianism. Learn that. |
