Skeeter, I think you are confused about how a voucher system would work. The government would give me a voucher for the amount that public schools currently get on a per head basis. I can now use that voucher to send my kid to any school.. private or public... What people don't understand, is that many times the tuition for a private school costs less than the government is paying my public school for each kid they have enrolled. Odd isn't it? Also strange is that with less money, private schools do a better job of educating the children. I reiterate; private schools do better with less, because if they don't they'd be out of business. Vouchers = Competition = Better Education (for each student, regardless of parental income). Richard
