That is NOT government funding...it came from my pocket.

Haven't you noticed that anytime the federal government disburses money to any person, organization or state, the federal government regulates that recipient? There are no end of court, including the Supreme Court, rulings that government financial involvement in anything gives the government the right to interfere.

It may have been originally your money, but once it gets to the government it becomes "public" money, and giving "public" money means regulatory agencies have the "duty" to insure it is spent "responsibly".

Therefore, if a voucher program is started it won't be long before the curriculum in any private school that accepts a student that is government funded must accept changes. You know, teach exactly what you go to a private school to avoid exposing your child to?

Agreed...that once money is sent to the government it becomes public money...

My position is to never send it as long as I can prove I spent it on my child's education...there is no need to turn $100 into $50...by paying a bureaucracy to mismanage it. We all know the gubmint is well versed in creating waste....
