Yes, and I would like to have even more ways for kids who want to learn to get out and go to a different school via vouchers, etc.

I love vouchers, but I think all they will do is put the kids who have parents that don't care in the same school. Will end up more like a prison than a school.

But if I was a parent in a city, give me vouchers! at least you can improve your lot.

That being said: It's still the parents (collective) who are responsible for those terrible schools.

I would actually say its the communities faults. Everyone would benefit if the schools were better, not just parents.
