An important question this article ignores, is why private school vouchers are chosen over public schools?
minus-squareNeuromancerMlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down7·1 month agoThe government isn’t paying for anything. They are collecting the tax revenue and issuing vouchers. Well unlike public school there would be education actually happening.
minus-squarebreadsmasher@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up9·1 month agoRight. The tax payer funds the voucher scheme. From taxes paid by the population. To the government. Who then issue vouchers. Which pays the private school. Do you think the vouchers are free magic money from the sky?

minus-squarebreadsmasher@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up9arrow-down1·1 month agoAnd now we are talking in circles. I give up.
minus-squareNeuromancerMlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down8·1 month agoIf you think results are circles then I understand why you don’t like vouchers.
minus-squarebreadsmasher@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down1·1 month agoNevermind. I believe you are doing this on purpose.
minus-squareintensely_humanlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down5·1 month agoThis is a pointless distinction. The government pays for vouchers exactly as much as they pay for public schools.

Never made such a claim.
