I support school vouchers. Your property taxes pay for public schools (I assume), but you don't intend to use the service. It would be nice if you could use the money that would be spent on your child in a public school to help pay for a school that is a better fit. If you got a $9000 voucher to help pay for a $16000 school, then it would only cost you $7000.

This sounds good, except that most private schools will just turn right around and raise their tuition by $9000.

Being unaffordable is kinda the point of many private schools. If they were affordable, then anyone could go there. <shudder>
