One, because it allows for more competition, allows for a bigger supply side response, more of a market response. But also we're paying for public schools for high and low income families. They should be able to benefit from school choice as well. We don't discriminate based on income for the public schools. We shouldn't discriminate based on income for school choice either.

And politics, again, is all about organized interest, pushing for what they want. If you have a small program that not a lot of people are benefiting from, well, the problem there is if Democrats get in charge, they're going to be more likely to be able to take it away because low-income families are not as politically active.

You already have that inequality baked into the government school system. You have Baltimore. They have 40% of their high schools have 0% math proficiency rate. You see the same thing in places like Chicago. And so they shouldn't make perfect the enemy of the good. And this fear-mongering hasn't happened with school choice. The public schools, if anything, have gotten better.

I cited Florida, but we also have nationwide data on this. 26 of the 29 studies on this nationwide find statistically significant positive effects of private school choice competition on the outcomes in the public schools, even Even enemies of school choice who are in academia who have any form of honesty at all, they admit that that the studies on the competitive effects are positive.

So the main argument that the unions put forward is the worst argument in terms of it being supported by the evidence. But a lot of people respond to fear mongering. And so they do that.

And it was done by Cornell researchers, published in 2018. And they actually found that when school choice was introduced, peer-reviewed study, when school choice was introduced, the number of searches online for different private education providers spiked.

The point is school choice increases parental involvement by definition. Yes, there'll be the parents who are involved anyway, but on the margins, the parents who who just felt like they were depressed being in the school system where they didn't have any other options.
