Republicans Unveil $100M School Voucher Plan

let's see, that's about $2 per student, or aren't they talking about giving vouchers to everybody?

if it's only available for low-income kids in "struggling schools," and they don't take funding away from those schools, fine, do it, but why call it a voucher? it's a grant, and it's unrelated to the national voucher plan gops used to use as a wedge issue and probably will again.

the only problem with the usual national voucher plan is it reduces federal funding to the schools that need it most, while claiming it encourages them to compete for those govt bucks. it's like how reaganites used to say deficits don't matter, and cutting taxes increases tax revenue.

right! like i heard somebody say, how many pay cuts do i have to take before i become a millionaire?
