How the COVID Pandemic EXPOSED our Broken Education System
Are you tired of feeling like you have no control over your child's education? Have you ever wanted to take a more active role in what your child learns, but felt like you didn't have the resources to do so? Well, you're not alone. Many parents have felt the same way, and that's why on this episode of The Brian Nichols Show, Brian sat down with Jon England, an education policy worker at the Libertas Institute, to discuss how to give parents more control when it comes to the public education system.
Jon England knows a thing or two about education. He was a teacher and principal in the public school system for 14 years before shifting his focus to empowering parents. During their conversation, Jon explained how the COVID pandemic revealed the amount of coursework children were doing, and how it gave parents a chance to see what their children were learning (or not learning). This realization has caused parents to become more involved in their child's education, and Jon encourages parents to take advantage of the resources available to them.
One of those resources is the Utah Fits All Scholarship, which Jon discussed on the show. This scholarship allows parents to choose how their child is educated by giving them state funding that can be used for private school tuition, tutors, micro schools, curriculum at home, and other expenses. This gives parents the power to be the consumer rather than just a passive receiver of education. Brian even reflected on his own experience, where his mother took him to kindergarten orientation, and how it emphasized the importance of parents having more control over their child's education.
Parents have also discovered that homeschooling can be more beneficial for their children, as it takes less time and allows them to build stronger relationships with their kids. The pandemic has forced parents to become more involved in their children's education, as they discover the benefits of homeschooling and the issues present in public schools. In Utah, parents have even fought against mask mandates when returning to school due to the pandemic, which has caused them to delve further into what is happening in the school system.
So, if you're a parent who wants more control over your child's education, then this is the episode for you. Jon England and Brian Nichols discuss the resources available to parents, the benefits of homeschooling, and how the pandemic has forced parents to become more involved in their children's education. It's time for parents to take an active role in their child's education and give them the best chance for success. Don't miss this episode of The Brian Nichols Show.

Say Goodbye to Complicated Taxes with the FairTax
Do you ever get that sinking feeling when you think about filing your taxes? It's a tedious and complicated process that takes up a significant chunk of your time and money. Well, what if we told you that there's a better way to do taxes, one that's simpler, fairer, and more efficient?
On the latest episode of The Brian Nichols Show, Mike Saliba joins Brian to discuss the FairTax system, an alternative to the traditional income tax and sales tax system. This revolutionary tax system would change the way we think about taxes and potentially generate economic growth in the process.
But how does it work? The FairTax system is a single point-of-sale consumption tax on new goods and services that would replace the existing income tax, gift tax, estate tax, Social Security tax, and Medicare tax. This means that instead of paying taxes on your income, you would only pay taxes when you purchase goods and services. Sounds fair, right?
Mike and Brian discuss how the FairTax system would be beneficial to the economy and create a simplified tax system. They also talk about how this system is equitable, as all individuals would pay the same amount, regardless of their income level. Plus, it would be more efficient than the current tax system, as it would reduce the number of loopholes, deductions, and credits.
But that's not all! The FairTax system has bipartisan support and appeals to Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, and independents alike. It would also eliminate the tax advantage of coming to the country without documentation and create a financial incentive to do so above board.
So, if you're tired of the traditional income tax system and want a better way to do taxes, tune in to The Brian Nichols Show to learn more about the FairTax system. Trust us, your wallet (and your sanity) will thank you.

In this episode, you'll hear about Geraldine Tyler, a 94-year-old woman who had her property taken away by the government due to unpaid taxes. She was left out $25,000, and the government doesn't even have to return the property in 14 states! Burling will argue at the Supreme Court that this is a violation of the eighth amendment's excessive fines clause and the fifth and fourteenth amendment's takings clause.

What will the Supreme Court decide in this case?
