It's good to get this case through before the libs pack the courts. Note this was a case of freedom vs. the State telling us what to do. Same as the "Pledge"

The "Pledge" ruling begs for private schools as well.

The government doesn't give anyone money without strings attached as to how that money is spent. Once private schools start taking government funds, the government is going to tell them how they have to spend those funds. They are also going to put all kinds of conditions and standards on the private schools to keep getting those funds. There may not be a lot of control at first, but after a few years the private schools will be as hooked on government money as kids are hooked on cigarettes. Once you get hooked on that government money there's no turning back. When private schools give up their freedom and independence, they become the same as the public schools. A school voucher system would lead to the elimination of private and religious education.

I had at one time subjected my children to schools which are mandated by government monies.

Subsequently, I removed them from the public education sector and placed them in private schools.
