struggled in the court of opinion thanks to local mainstream media’s slavish devotion to the status quo…

Or perhaps because parents want actual reform that will fix education across the board, and not just for a select group of people?

Probably has no children (or grandchildren) in school and thinks these decisions will not impact him/her. Doesn’t contemplate that the local taxes for schools will rise, significantly, to pay for the damage that will occur when kids clear out of public schools. I can only imagine the good that could be done if the people that keep pushing this “easy” way out would concentrate those resources (time and money) towards making the schools improve. They’re just running and that never fixes anything.

Well, part of that is right. No kids. So really, its someone’s else issue to worry about.
As to the rest of it, I’ve learned one thing about taxes–they never go down. Doesn’t matter what happens, or what I do about it.

I am waiting for this question to be polled.

Should the state pay the the private school tuition of the children of parents who make more than $100,000 a year? Between $75,000 and $100,000 a year? Between $50,000 and $75,000 a year? Between $50,000 and $25,000 a year? Less than $25,000 a year. Lets see where the public is on the real unvarnished issue here. Not the push poll questions.

My problem with these polls is that they ask questions about the finished product not about how we get there.

“Would you like to live in a big house with three bathrooms, a three car garage and an Olympic size swimming pool?”

Never a question about how you will keep the house clean, take care of the cars in the garage or maintain the pool.

That classroom must be at the political re-education center or a teacher’s indoctrination training college. What’s with the big two way mirror and regimented rows of desks? I’m in 100+ classrooms a year and have never seen a room as neat as that one.

S.C. has a wonderful school choice program.

Send your kids to any school you want, including any private school.

But, don’t rob tax money from the public school system to support private schools.

sic(k) willie and Howie the Voucher Clown keep changing the name, but a voucher scam is a voucher scam – even if you call it a tax credit.

Regardless of what you call it, the voucher scam only hurts those who need help the most. The voucher scam is a fraud, which is why the honest members of the S.C. Legislature have been flushing it down the toilet year after year after year.

Keep listening for that giant sucking sound as the S.C. Legislature keeps sending the voucher scam tax credit fraud into the sewer.
