Rep Way sounds like a really nice guy, until you hear him repeating the same tired refrains about how wonderful Trump is, that every Republican chants. His qualifications are a tad sketchy; his father, however, has been a Rep. in Utah, and has become a multi-millionaire due to his work in using taxpayer dollars to fund private schools. Not a bad racket! Rep Michael Way also admitted he is deeply involved in their "family" business, which makes me a little bit suspect . I don't mind parent's choice, so long as they don't use my tax dollars, which were taken from me and every other taxpayer for PUBLIC school education. If those funds are used for private schools, that takes away MY choice. Parents can still maintain their choice to send their children to a private school, but I, a taxpayer, shouldn't be required to finance them. I get nothing in return. However, public education allows ALL children the chance to thrive, which makes it better for our whole society. Let's face it, if the gov't. was giving you thousands of dollars each year to send your kid to school, wouldn't you take it? Most would. It's a scam, folks, another way to separate the wealthy from the poor, brought to you by the religious right and the GOP majority. (majority being the key word here)
