I don't think vouchers are the answer to the problem of poor public schools. If everyone was allowed to have a vouncher then everyone would leave, and the public school would only get worse. Private schools would become more crowded and have more money- only widening the gap between a public and private education. Resources should go into strengthening the communities and current public schools.
But why would private schools become more crowded? They can choose not to admit kids if they want, even if it means more money. Some schools cap the number of students at a certain number. Several private schools here recently added new wings or buildings, but not every school is admiting more kids.
