Support for vouchers is simply support for more choice. 1) Vouchers will ultimately lead to more money for public schools, not less. 2) As a result of the above scenario, the end-game for vouchers will not likely be the end of public schools. Past results show that both public <i>and</i> private schooling will be improved by them. There is no hypocrisy in compromise in this instance.

Support for vouchers is simply support for more choice.

1) Vouchers will ultimately lead to more money for public schools, not less.

2) As a result of the above scenario, the end-game for vouchers will not likely be the end of public schools. Past results show that both public and private schooling will be improved by them.

Nationally, teachers opt for private schools about twice as often as the average parent. In big metropolises, the ratio is even higher. What do teachers know that we apparently don't?
