    Since they’d still have public school, their situation would stay the same but it would improve the education of millions of poor minority children.

    I think that’s a good thing.

        Or it improves. It’s their choice. Right now public schools have a monopoly and vouchers break that monopoly. They can either improve or fail.

        Either way the children benefit with a better education and that is what is important.

            We’ve already done in to inner city kids since the 1970’s.

            I am a big advocate the education is the way to solve income disparity. The solution isn’t wealth distraction. It’s making sure every child has a quality education.

            Also when you first start there will be a limit to capacity. The private schools around today would be the ones children could attend. It’s take awhile to get a school up and certified. Overnight there would be little change and over years it’d make a positive outcome.
