Whenever anybody makes an impassioned statement that's clearly wrong or logically incoherent, there is a question to be raised about whether the person is simply wrong and poorly informed or if the person is actually lying.
When it comes to the rhetoric that comes in opposition to school choice, particularly in regard to claims that voucher programs somehow benefit the rich at the expense of kids who are less well off, I do have to believe that it's a mixture of lies and ulterior motives.
You don't have to be a brilliant or thoughtful person to realize that the people who can pay for school twice are rich people. That's what we're demanding when we oppose school choice. It doesn't take an economist to know that a school voucher is a more accessible and tenable path for a middle to low-income family to get their kid out of a failing school than it is for them to buy a new house in a better district. It's the rich people who can choose their addresses based on the schools while it's the poor who end up in legal trouble for falsifying their addresses in order to get their kids into better schools.
This isn't hard, people. Opposition to school choice isn't built out of ignorance. It's built out of greed by many people. It's built out of the self-interest of large swaths of the population who believe that they reliably control the curriculum and they want kids kept as captive audiences to be fed a particular ideological narrative. Either way, I have to believe that the overwhelming majority of passionate opposition to school choice is built in lies. This is not a matter upon which we can agree to disagree. Your opinion is not valid nor respectable.
