The title is:

Inside the Movement to Redirect Billions of Taxpayer Dollars to Private Religious Schools

It's about religious schools, which is a major omission from the title.




I toned down the title to prevent rage engagement on purpose. Didn't work that well - the post got flagged anyway, as it always happens when people forget how to disagree in civil ways.

That we on HN can't have a civil discussion on a divisive topic is deeply saddening to me. Se should be better than that.


I admire the thinking; thanks.

Agreed.


Yeah, the Vouchers Hurt Ohio site says 90% of the schools receiving vouchers are religious.


Gotta fund those Christian Madrasas!

On a more serious note, you have to wonder why religions are more overt about having the taxpayer foot their bills these days? I mean really, if you want Christian, Muslim or whatever religion schools, fine. No issue from me. But if the government compels me to fund the Madrasas, that's another thing entirely.

This is a genuine problem.
