[[Homeschool]]ed by his father with the assistance of [[Jeremy Bentham]] and Francis Place (Following  the principles of the [[Jean Jacques Rousseau|Rousseau]]'s ''Emilio''). Mill supported [[laissez-faire]] but with social reforms like redistribution of wealth, shorter working days, and regulation of [[monopoly|monopolies]].  Today he would be called a "moderate [[conservative]]" due to his support of some [[government]] controls over the [[economy]].  Mill was ahead of his time in advocating the development of [[labor union]]s and farm [[cooperative]]s, and [[emancipation]] (voting) by women.  He sympathized with the North in the [[American Civil War]].
