Federal vouchers are just a new way to increase the national debt. States need to pay their own way, and the definition of "prevailing wage" for teachers needs to be based on what the local private schools pay.

The notion that the fed gov needs to fund local decisions about spending needs to be cut out of our society. No responsible, rational adult spends themselves into poverty to subsidize their favorite charity. If they do, the kids generally start looking for a special place to put mom or grandma, and take away their credit cards to minimize future damage.

OMG! Great post!

Where, oh where, did we get the idea that the federal government's funds are endless?
