“since they rarely provide enough money for the underprivileged to get into the really good schools, but makes it easier for those who can already come close to affording private.”
All the voucher system essentially would do is give the money to the parents that would normally be taxed and using it to go to any school they want. This wouldn’t do anything to hamper kids going to any school they please.
“Furthermore, it tends to undermine public schools, which I think is a bad thing, too.”
If those public schools aren’t doing their job then they don’t deserve to be a school in the first place. If they notice that there enrollment rates are dropping they would naturally be forced to improve their teaching to keep kids from leaving them. It’s a win win situation.
