Vouchers are - at best - a stopgap, a finger in the dam of societal/individualism's failure - at worst - they are a variant on the bog standard "capitalist" pyramid scheme thing. People with children know this. People who are still wide-eyed and wet behind the ears, and so so sincere, they have yet to get it.

Hah! Vouchers are down-right revolutionary and anathema to unions!

Ship builders build better ships. Captains just sail whatever's available.
