I guess I just never understood how taking money away from a school via the vouchers actually helps public schools. The familys that have their kids in private schools don't give a crap about public schools. The private schools also don't have to take costly special needs kids. Vouchers have been around for decades, have our schools improved or become worse?



Last question first; In teh areas where vouchers have been implimented shools have improved. If I could provide teh data to prove that would it effect your view in any way?

As far as "taking the money away" from public schools, teh money is a refund to the tax payer, a parrent who decides to take thier child out of a failing shool shouldn't have to also pay for that school to contnue to fail... the way that it improves schools is by providing something that has proven to improve quality in all areas.... compitition.
