[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I keep reading "$12,000 in school choice funds to every K-12 student who today lives in poverty." So [b]only[/b] families making less than $25,000 per year will get this, or will it be tiered like other voucher programs? As in, families making $45,000 might get a $7,000 voucher and so forth.[/quote] Before everyone gets excited about their middle class free stuff, let me point out that there are 16 million children living below the poverty line. To give them all $12,000 a year would be 192 billion per year. You would have to quadruple the Department of Education budget to do that. Really unlikely to happen. More unlikely that it will reach people making your level of income. [/quote] WTF kind of bullshit spin in this? These kids are already enrolled, so they're already getting up to $18,000 per year in some districts. And nowhere near 100% of kids will hop districts.[/quote]
