Well @elonmusk 1. We don’t live in a democracy, we live in a Constitutional Republic. 2. What you are describing is the Judicial Oligarchy that we’ve been living in since its redesign in the late 1800s. It’s called post constitutional reconstruction - the establishment of federal and judicial supremacy that began in 1830. If you really want to know- I can show you.

1. The Dept of Education is an unconstitutional entity even if, especially if, they are the source of money benefits. 2. Tax “credits” are not defined by the IRS as “you keeping your money” but as the IRS letting you have their money. 3. Homeschool is currently regulated by State laws not federal. 4. Federal benefits to homeschool parents will give the excuse for federal regulations imposed upon homeschooling to include curriculum, grading, and testing standards. 5. This is already true for local schools who get federal tax benefits- they are heavily regulated by the Feds. 6. Federal monetary benefits also create a dependency on federal money that binds parents to any and all regulations imposed upon homeschooling. There is no such thing as govt benefits without strings. Parents who want to maintain autonomy and independence in homeschool education MUST DECLINE THESE FEDERAL “BENEFITS” as they are not benefits but shackles.
