Did anybody watch the 20/20 Stupid In America Program tonight?
I thought it was pretty good. I think parents should have a choice to send a kid to whatever school they want. I read som earlier posts in this thread about the difference of the values in vouchers from county county or whatever....seems to me that a voucher idea would work if the STATE took the total cost of educating all schools and diving it equally, rather than by county. That way, it wouldnt matter which county you lived in and how much your voucher was worth - as long as you went to a school in the state you lived (which is common sense) then all students in that state would get couchers worth the same amount to go to any school.
I dunno. Sounds good to me. Oh yeah - and after watching that program - I totally think teachers unions suck. If a teacher can send a sex email to his 16 year old student and NOT get fired because of a union contract, theres a serious problem.
