We can't have the money follow the child.

It's because of unions.

That's the only reason.

It's because of power dynamics.

Special interests have a monopoly only for K through 12, where they say, you know what?

That threatens, because if people choose something else, that money's going to go somewhere else.

Whereas you don't have that same kind of status quo for college or pre-K.

It's only in K through 12.

That's the public school system.

You have these segregated schools by zip code where minority kids are failed more than anybody else.

And you want to trap them there, which is what the government school system wants to do.

And they they see those kids as dollar signs.

and doesn't want to give them an opportunity to do something else because they know if those kids were to have an opportunity, they'd take it and get a lifeline to success.

You look in D.C., for example, they have a voucher program that was passed by Congress.

That's the only way they were able to do it.

It's a federal district.

So, of course, Congress has the ability to do it there.

And I think it started in the early 2000s.

And 95% of the recipients of those scholarships are Black or Hispanic.

The average household income last that I saw was about $30,000 to $40,000, and this is in the District of Columbia, a higher cost-of-living area.
