What happened to all the Republicans who wanted the federal government to get out of education all together as that was the business of the states. Hello? Anybody out there?

They were told by Dear Leader to get on board or get run over - and so it seems they abandoned their principles in the name of appeasing the oligarchy that feeds them

😩This from your article:

Voucher schemes have many different names, such as “tax credits” and “scholarships,” and different mechanisms for diverting funds to private schools. The shapeshifting and renaming of voucher programs are arguably deliberate strategies by their promoters to obscure their true nature and to try to avoid legal challenges, negative policy connotations, and community opposition.

Yes - it’s maddening. If a program is good, you shouldn’t have to mask it in multiple names and hide what it really does.
