Default What is so wrong about School Vouchers?

Seriously, I hear a lot of quietness when someone throws the School Voucher argument in a Democrats face. Why on Earth would anyone be against School Vouchers? I imagine that the people opposed to them can already afford to pay for private schooling and just can not fathom money going away from failing public schools.

Most Education Reform Activists support school voucher systems. I just do not understand it. You can throw all the money you like at public Schools, nothing ever gets better and our kids keep getting dumber.

Let me hear a serious criticism of School Vouchers. I have yet to hear one.

Sweden, Ireland, The Netherlands, Chile, and Hong Kong have or are implementing School voucher systems. Why would this be detrimental to the United States?

Come on, I am waiting...
