Will a state-wide school voucher program save money for the taxpayer?

Yes -- School budgets will not increase by $2 million each year since members of the teachers union will no longer be able to demand 3 percent annual raises with each contract through the threat of harming the futures of hostage children by withholding

No -- We'd have to ante up for all those kids in Catholic and other non-public schools whose parents have been paying tuitions along with their public school taxes.
