You mean yet another Republican plan turned out to simply be a grift to remove tax payer funds and insert them directly into rich friends and political donor pockets? It's absurd that people keep listening to Republicans do the same thing and then act shocked when they get the same results

Oh shit I just read the article... Let me point out the part they're not saying, Republicans are lying to get rich while destroying the education system once there is a huge budget deficit, the Republicans will say need to get tough on Democrats spending money (despite the deficit coming directly due to Republican legislation) to do that we need to make cuts in (all programs that benefit the middle to low class) safety net programs.

Just to help it go down smoother the Republicans will also add a line item which gives more tax cuts to the rich and most likely the same folks pocketing the 1.4 billion in voucher funds.

It's a goddamn scam to deprive/erode all but the richest Americans of quality of life.

Working as intended.

School vouchers are designed to indirectly defund public schools, leading to a widening of the class-based education gap in our nation.

Because they are fucking retarded. Just have the government adequately fund schools like it is supposed to. Its not fucking hard.

School Vouchers Were Supposed to Save Taxpayer Money.

Only if you only listed to pro+voucher people and literally nothing else. Anyone with 2 good braincells is able to see that the voucher system is designed to siphon money from the public and put it into private hands.

No they were supposed to siphon education funds away from poor people and minorities. At greater cost to the tax payers. Education is a luxury of the elite.

If it's funded by taxes, it should be owned by the public.

As a result of all this unexpected spending, alongside some recent revenue losses, Arizona is now having to make deep cuts to a wide swath of critical state programs and projects, the pain of which will be felt by average Arizonans who may or may not have school-aged children.

No, they lied about it saving taxpayer money and it had the intended and obvious outcome of fucking the budget.

They do that garbage in Florida too because the religious people are fucking retarded and we need to put a lid on them. How can the country govern itself when half the population is a bunch of superstitious retards. Ulysses Grant was right about them and the future, which is now.

I mean fucking duh. Who thought this was anything other than a cash grab?

I too would like to find this magical place where I can give away money, get nothing in return, and somehow end up with more money.

Which is the point of the whole plan.

Party of fiscal responsibility, y’all!
