I'm for vouchers if they can be applied equitably. In either Milwaukee or Cleveland, the vouchers had to be applied for and were then distributed on a lottery basis. Those who are eligible for the application have to make below a certain income level. If it is determined that kids would benefit from going to a different school, then it should be available for everyone in that income bracket - not just the ones who were lucky enough to know about the applications and then get picked out of the lottery.

Of course, the best answer is to improve the schools and a variety of other measures that won't be taking place anytime soon. I don't think there is a quick fix answer, but something needs to happen to change the future of the schools and education in general.
