"Those people" will still have public schools, and the rest of us will gladly pay for our kids NOT to have to attend them. Being private, our schools never have to do all that stupid NCLB testing, and we'll tout how fantastic we are with no evidence to the contrary.
Churches are, and have been solidly behind this "voucher movement" for years now. They'd be fools not to! It will be drummed from every pulpit all over America more and more as elections approach. The church schools will receive even more "faith based" govt. grant money as well as their regular tuition. Corporate owned schools, not having to comply with all the Federal regulations, will turn handsome profits, indeed. Nation wide, the profits will be in the billions.
Bottom line? Get rid of those failed public school unionized parasites who are responsible for all the ills of society! Make huge money selling something that Americans now get for free!
Free? Have you paid your property taxes lately? The latest data indicates that less than half of inner city high school students in larger cities across the country are graduating. Sounds like we aren't getting much for our tax money with the alarming growth in dropout rates.
