It is a good step.

I would like for there to be a refundable tax credit per-student per-year in an amount sufficient to cover tuition for all those enrolled in private schools.

That would spur the development of new schools and revive education in America.

The problem is that it green-lights private and parachiol schools to raise tuition by an amount equivalent to the tax-break. Like tariffs on imported goods. Let’s say we place a tariff of $2,000 on every imported car. Domestic manufacturers can charge an additional $1999 and still beat the foreign competition.

Agreed. I love it. Schools should be like shops. There should be cheap no frills schools, fancy prep schools, and anything in between. I could imagine wonderful small schools in inner cities run by locals who reach their specific populations in ways that will help those kids do well. No one knows better how to succeed in a gang infested Latino barrio than adults who succeeded from such a childhood, who would run such a school.

Get government do gooders OUT of education. All the handouts HURT the struggling population, making them morally bankrupt and dependent.

It’s a horrible step. It is the country’s lower-middle and middle classes paying for Jivanka’s rich friends to save hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Sickening.

Give businesses the opportunity to receive tax credits for scholarships to for low income students to private (including religious) schools. Watch how many young people would get a lift in life from Chic-fillet, Hobby Lobby and and other morally supportive businesses.
