There is no question that tax dollars will eventually flow to church-run schools since 85 percent of private schools in Michigan are parochial. The argument you'll hear most often from voucher supporters is that vouchers would give parent's a choice. Parents already have the right to choose a religious education for their children. Taxpayers should not be expected to pay for that choice. Vouchers offer no guarantee of admission.
Vouchers require no change in a school's admission policy.
Private schools don't have to admit students or can discriminate on the basis of disability, IQ, achievement scores, income, gender, religion, or sexual orientation. They don't have to offer special education services and most, in fact, do not. Private schools are not forced to accept vouchers. Although 91 children applied for vouchers, only 59 spaces are available. Whether or not you have children, vouchers will effect your pocketbook.
