Neither will its destructive burden be dismantled overnight. Any competition we bring to education is a start. Any involvement of the federal government is the seeds of disaster. If the federal government controls all the education money, it can fully control education. History tells us that control will be abused.
State controlled vouchers are likely to fare little better.
The short term improvement in education that might flow from the competition initially promoted by vouchers will be small compensation for the harm that will result when government uses vouchers to extend its control to all education. The first step toward sound private education must be to make millions more Americans aware of the frightening dangers of government control of education. Control goes beyond mere ownership of the physical facilities. Private schools will not be much of an improvement if government tells them who can teach and what to teach. Billions of dollars are at stake.
