Proponents of a form of "market socialism" known as "school vouchers" have long ignored the argument that along with government money would come government control of private schools that accept voucher students. This would in turn destroy the private schools, eventually. This argument against vouchers was always unanswerable, but the current antics of the Obammunists should prove once and for all what a hoax it is to call voucher welfare a "libertarian" idea.When you make a deal with the devil: you are guaranteed of being the junior partner.One dollar of subsidy or loan by the government gives Obama the license to tell you what to do.Separating education from state is a good idea.
The Obammunists are so determined to use tax money as the means by which they control all banks that they are refusing to accept returned TARP funds from banks that have had second thoughts about accepting the money -- and the accompanying governmental destruction of their private institutions.
