I feel you. We ended up having to move for more help with the kids. Socialized childcare of some kind would have kept me working and contributing to wider society. Instead I had to move back to the village. It seems like taxes being used to support people would help "line go up."

At first it seemed wild to me that you weren’t taught it, but now that I’m thinking about it, I don’t know where I learned about it from. I might have learned it in a high school class, but I came out as an atheist at that time and did a lot of research on my own, so I’m not sure.

It doesn’t seem like something that should be esoteric, but something that should be taught alongside other educational and civil rights battles and milestones.

If I had to guess, you probably watched a version of Inherit the Wind in one of your classes. It's how I found out about it at least.
