> vote for getting the subsidized funds to where you actually send your kids

…which is what happens today with public schools. Your case only makes sense if you’re sending your kid to private school and would like public funds to help pay for it.

School vouchers allow richer families to go to private school while preventing lower income folks from doing so, exacerbating problems with educational achievement.

School vouchers are the only fair way to do schooling. Rich people paying for more expensive things isn’t bad. They just shouldn’t be forced to pay for the more expensive thing that they use as well as the less expensive thing they don’t use
