Okay, But Why? - The Problem with School Vouchers

The Problem with School Vouchers

08/09/23 • 31 min

Okay, But Why?

During our second episode, we take a look at the long history of school voucher programs and the state’s hidden agenda to increase religious education and further segregate our school system. At a time when public education is already underfunded, we can’t afford programs that allow wealthy families to use public funds for private and religious education. In this episode, we look at the cost of these programs and the true motives behind them.
