The Croydon Budget Battle with Ian Underwood

The Porcupine Report with Eric Brakey

In 2022, the town of Croydon NH voted to replace the usual ransom demanded by the school administration with a budget offered by the taxpayers. The point of this change was to force the serious consideration of a number of fundamental questions about education that never get considered under the ransom model of funding. Unfortunately, the conversation was quickly derailed into a referendum about Free Staters. We'll discuss what actually happened in Croydon (beyond what the media reported) and our lessons learned. There will also be a never-heard-before epilogue! Learn more about the Free State Project at https://www.fsp.org#freestateproject #libertarian #porcfest
