Vouchers and State-Sponsored Theft

Sharing Options

[Speaking of school vouchers] “This essay is not calling for tax revolt — a refusal to pay taxes because I am being stolen from. Rather, the point is that we should stop clamoring for yet another program that would require the government to steal still more. The reason we are stolen from is that we are thievish at heart; God judges us according to how we treat others. The measure we use is measured to us. I pay exorbitant taxes because somewhere, someone else is yelling for a program. If we start yelling for a program, it hardly looks like repentance” (The Paideia of God, p. 35).
