kfb: First, when I lived in NY, there was talk of tuition tax credits. The first thing Yeshiva’s did was raise tuition on the basis of something that never happened.
Second and even more important. Government funds ALWAYS come with strings attached. Do you want your young children learning from the book, “Johnny has two daddies?”
The less government involvement the better. Besides, haven’t they done a great job with their school systems?
