Here's one big fat argument against vouchers for private religious schools - Islamic private schools full of students and teachers ready to go to 'jihad' against the United States. Do you want YOUR tax dollars paying for teaching the Koran - parts of which claims as religious principles that Jews and Christians should be subordinated to the total Islamic society under Islamic law? I don't.

I don't think that's much worse than having the government schools indoctrinate kids to hate America and free enterprise.

I would far rather have the risk of schools who promote a jihad and are optional than I would the current situation where students are forced into a Liberal/Socialist doctrine, and the parents have no choice.
Granted, wealthy parents always have a choice, but there are many parents who can't afford to pay both taxes and tuition.
Why shouldn't all parents have a choice about how heir children are educated?
