If we can incentivize people to free themselves from public education through a bottom up approach, we can actually make this happen. There are a lot of problems that distract us about Statism, but I would say education is the root of many of the other problems. If you can free yourself from state indoctrinated schooling and state approved certification, you can completely free your mind and free yourself from the state. This requires a massive grassroots educational overhaul blockchain style.
