"Even less understandable, is that so many people don’t see that vouchers and tax credits are just masks for socialism."

I see them as exactly the reverse -- it's not government money and thus not "socialistic," but a chance to get our *own* money back to use for education as *we* see fit.

Of course, I would rather the government never even took the money from us in the first place!

Just another point of view --

The government has no money until it takes it from those who earn it. Vouchers just mask the real problem and allow people to think they are not on the dole. Few people pay enough school taxes to cover the cost of even one kid in a socialist school. The rest is taken by force from others.

Vouchers are the no different than food stamps, except they would go to everyone and not just the poor. Would you support giving everyone vouchers for health care? Would you say that isn't socialism?
