You'll never get the vouchers idea past the unions, much as it makes sense.

I know first-hand what it takes simply to get a charter school built and the insanely petty tactics that are employed at every turn by the teacher's union to prevent it.

They would make life a living hell for and politically ruin any politician that seriously promoted it (reference Ahhhhnold Schwartzy in KA for an example of how this can be done when they feel their gravy train is being threatened).

Private school and some home schooling will be employed at my house. No question. F the public institutions. F 'em. If I could withhold funding via my taxes to pay for their ineptitude, I'd do it immediately (and the public schools in my area are actually quite good, ranked among the highest in the country, but IMHO they still suck).
