Oh how I understand your excellent points! Grasped the dangers years ago, but seeing a slide presentation with all the numbers and examples of lack of standards for 'voucher schools', well my friend, it is terrifying how the GOP is funneling public money to private enterprises without any sort of standards or accountability.

More than the Trump, I fear one more generation of educational failure is what will do this nation in for sure.
