This is a pointless distinction. The government pays for vouchers exactly as much as they pay for public schools.
Comment on Florida’s private school vouchers soar, creating concern over impact on public schools
wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee 5 weeks agoThe government isn’t paying for anything. They are collecting the tax revenue and issuing vouchers.
Well unlike public school there would be education actually happening.

Right. The tax payer funds the voucher scheme. From taxes paid by the population. To the government. Who then issue vouchers. Which pays the private school.
Do you think the vouchers are free magic money from the sky?

Never made such a claim.

And? They get money from taxes. As tax payers we should expect results and vouchers will do that.
