Arizona, the model for voucher programs across the country, has spent so much money paying private schoolers’ tuition that it’s now facing hundreds of millions in budget cuts to critical state programs and projects.

    School vouchers were never supposed to save taxpayer money. They were supposed to funnel money to corporations that sponsor politicians.

      They were supposed to undermine public education and erode the separation between church and state.
