Homeschooling: A Hope for America is a collection of articles taken from The Voluntaryist, a newsletter with a libertarian outlook which has been published since 1982. The anthology has been assembled by Carl Watner (from many of his past articles, as well as those of others), and contains an original foreword by John Taylor Gatto. This anthology argues against government education in a unique way. One who advocates voluntaryism opposes government schools, not because he opposes schooling but, because he opposes coercion, which is to be found in government taxation, compulsory attendance laws, and in the monopolization of public services. Most of us would agree that there should not be any state religion; that religion should not be supported by taxation; and that people should not be compelled to attend religious services. Why shouldn’t the principles of voluntaryism in religion apply to education?

How green is green? The average homeowner is usually well-informed about which products and concepts are considered “green”, but they seem to have less of an understanding of how they compare, and which things work the best for the lowest investment. Did you know that 40 percent of the average home power bill is dedicated to air conditioning in warm climates? Further, energy is spent on cooking, hot water, clothes dryers, and such.
