Keeping the status quo is easier than
innovating. If vouchers are going to “siphon money from government schools” why isn’t the same true in higher education?

I don’t hear state college professors running around crying about Pell grant(”government dollars”)money “unfairly” being used to attend St.Thomas,Gustavus,St.Johns or other private religiously affiliated schools.

What happened to the magic wall between “church and state” there?

Wow, that is an excellent point I hadn’t even considered! In that instance, government is directly funding that religion-based education.

You must have to be a complete control freak to be a lib. In every instance, it’s OUR money the government is using to dictate every aspect of our lives. Liberals are encouraging of that on a collective scale and yet would freak out if someone walked into their home, took control of their checkbook and started dictating financial and lifestyle choices on an individual level.

Thanks, Wobbly! You’ve given me something to chew on today! LOL
