Ask HN: What would America look like if there was less government?
&gt;education<p>One of the Libertarian propositions to public schooling is giving a check to all children to redeem at any private school that passes some bar set by the government. I love this solution, since it removes the requirement for residency for admittance to quality education, and strongarms the schooling system to be more efficient and competitive in how they produce students (assuming that the primary reason to choose one over another is test scores). Primary efficiency would come from reducing the amount of faculty required to hire.<p>&gt;gas&#x2F;oil&#x2F;electricity<p>I don&#x27;t see how this is tied to the public sector directly, unless you&#x27;re talking about the military and Pentagon specifically.<p>&gt;healthcare<p>It&#x27;s complicated, not going to flesh that out. In general, we have a fairly privatized health care sector compared to a lot of other countries.<p>&gt;law enforcement<p>Mass shootings have a lot more to do with the overuse of social media and the underuse of meaningful in person relationships than it has to do with law enforcement.
