7. No problem, so long as voucher accepting schools are held to standards.
The purpose of public taxation to support schools is to ensure that all children get an education. So long as those tax dollars are being used for that purpose, and any education offered meets certain legal standards, I have no problem with vouchers. I support universal education, the exact method of delivery is less important than the standard itself.

Hell, I don't even care if they teach religious doctrine to the kids, so long as they aren't doing it exclusively, and it doesn't interfere with their learning other standardized curriculum.
