I'm working on a new project related to education. Somehow the greatest country on earth, with all types of advantages, opportunities and resources is getting worse. Not just a little worse, horrifically worse. Talking with Bitcoiners about this is easy. They understand self-custody education = homeschooling before I even finish saying the words out loud. They also 
understand the role fiat money continues to play in the undermining of our school systems.
This new project is focused on those who are not yet maxis. In fact, they may not even be Bitcoiners yet. One part of my framework is vectors which are more than just a coordinates. They have direction and magnitude. The framework is valuable, even for non-engineering types. For example, when someone reports that inflation is x%, this is a position. It does not communicate the whole story. Monetary inflation is not static. It is more helpful to understand which direction it is heading. It is increasing. In fact, it is accelerating.
The vector of homeschooling is increasing over the last several decades and not just because of COVID, which exposing the truth of the sad state of education spectacularly. However, while this trend may feel new, it is more like a pendulum swinging through its cycle. Zoom out 100 years or 200 years and we see homeschooling was once our dominant method. Fears from administrators that homeschooling undermines children, the country, or some political agenda are baseless. The United States excelled in terms of human prosperity when schooling was decentralized. Our decline in education as we have become more centralized is alarming.
