So your base argument is that if those students who most need vouchers are allowed to have them, then they will ruin the private schools that are good?

And you are comparing this to Section 8 housing vouchers?

I really want you to clarify this position, because you sound like what you are really saying is that you want children of certain races to be stuck in crappy schools so they don’t “infect” the good private schools with their presence.

If that is not correct, then state so.

Let's reword that to the 1970s argument: "So your base argument is that if those families who most need Section 8 vouchers, are allowed to have them, then they will ruin the neighborhoods that are good."

Can you tell me why this is different?

By the way, when did Conservatism sign on to radical egalitarianism where those who can't afford something should be able to have what those who can afford it have?

I'd like to know that.
