Please stop. Why is it that I am embarassed for you and you are not embarrassed for yourself?
You don't have a response. I'm not surprised.
Well, you were the one that was supposedly for "helping" poor with Newt Gingrich school vouchers.
Let's do some arithmetic. If Newt Gingrich gave some poor family in DC a voucher for 3 grand, and if private schools cost between 20 and 30 grand a year, is it your contention that those poor families have a spare 20 grand a year just lying around to make up the difference for the actual cost of the private school?
You know they don't.
Which means this wasn't about "helping" poor families at all. Its a rightwing gimmick to allow rich people to opt out of funding public education.
