"the state shall decide their 'consciousness' not their regressive parents and certainly not the children themselves."

The last six words of that sentence point the way to the next two preventive goals after school choice. To raise a thoroughly freedom-loving generation, don't treat children and teenagers as the de facto slaves of adults. How can it not teach submission to arbitrary authority? Every good libertarian should support youth rights and self-directed education. (I admit there are lots of leftists in those movements, but if we ally with them for drug policy reform, why not also for other goals?)
