Exactly Henry! The strategy for the wealthy since Reagan "starve the beast". The conservatives took the strategy to cut nothing but taxes. Everyone loves tax cuts, but resist program cuts. They then complain about the deficit they created.

The School Voucher program is the next action to destroy a public institution. As the funding for public schools continues to flow toward charter and private schools (parent choice), the need to collect public dollars for education will be unnecessary. That will result in the opportunity for more tax cuts. All these middle class people that are currently using vouchers will then be on the hook to pay for the entire private school tuition. You got to know the end game. Democracy in Chains - Nancy MacLean.

Knowing the end game is critical...too many don't want to think that far ahead or are to lazy to. It's never just the cost or savings going into any program... it's the cost, over time, both socially and financially.... as the 2 are inseparable.
