My family was between lower middle class and poor.
Education is a key to breaking the cycle of poverty. Don't make this about liberals and conservatives. I'm sure liberals want to break the poverty cycle as much as conservatives do.
Why do you think that vouchers will solve the problem? I can't really see them as a solution at all. Property prices and the quality of schools are linked you say, that living in good school districts is more expensive. Well with you voucher system, if you increase the demand for good private schools, that drives up their cost as well, and poor students won't be able to afford them even with a subsidized voucher. Even with a voucher system to subsidize school payment, the poor are not able to choose which school they want. You wind up with the richer families being able to afford the good private schools and the poor families only being able to afford the inferior schools again.
Sorry, but it is liberals vs conservatives, as the liberals don't want vouchers.
First of all, you are assuming a static level of private school enrollment. With increased demand comes funding for growth and economies of scale.
