Abstract

One of the few truly rational arguments against education tuition vouchers is that if implemented on a universal basis they would further separate the “haves” from the “have-nots” and create another instance of the so-called neo-conservatives perpetuating the politics of exclusion. Instead, we suggest a voucher plan that would be awarded according to family income and benefit only those truly in need, thus furthering the efforts of those espousing the politics of inclusion.
