OK on these topics of healthcare and school vouchers, if choice truly is your issue, how about this. Say every kid gets a school voucher of $900 (or whatever the std is), but that the schools that choose to participate in the voucher program are forced to take say, 5% "underpriviledged" kids. Or, an alternative solution would be the more difficult students somehow were allocated more in voucher money. The difficulty in both of these solutions is determining who is underpriviledged. An easier concept is with regard health care.... do you support something that says a healthcare provider can only charge say, 10% more to the general public that they offer to their large clients (therefore eliminated the subsidies that individuals are paying with respect to the large groups now)? The point of these kinds of proposals is that choice is afforded for the crowd that wants choice while at the same time one group is not benefitting at the expense of another.
