so if districts condition hold to the student -- can't hold on to students who use vouchers, and expressc choice they go elsewhere, the problem is, that district in poor neighborhoods, these are really cartels, they are under full control of the educational system, there is no incentive for them to improve. if you don't -- >> actually. kennedy: then you will have places like washington d.c., you on average 30,000 dollars for pupil. >> there is a lot of incentives for improvement in the nation, and districts that i am working in a lot, like lawrence, massachusets, new york city, i was just actualy in dc this week, where, people are rolling up their sleeves they want to make sure that particularly in neighborhoods that you are talking about, that we stabilize the neighborhood and have a public school that is a center of community, you may be right about district bureaucracy, i don't have -- i am you know, i -- i find sometime that federal government has overreached, and district bureaucracy, i want to pull my hair out with them too. but when i talk about schoolteachers in schools, and prin

and now we give child care vouchers for child care.school. why is it so hard. and it's worked both places, why is it hard to to do it for schools? and finally, while the ideal would be to say any school public or private made a lot of progress in the last 25 years by expanding choices for parents in public schools. and the more that happens the more likely we are to get to the point where we can understand that we're talking about any school public or private. we now have 5,000 charter schools and we didn't have any when i was education secretary. wrote a letter in 1992 asking them to try this new idea. which was in minnesota then and there were only about 10 such charter schools. every state now has expanded opportunity for parents to choose among schools. and i've always wondered why nashville didn't ask parents, give me the three choices of schools you'd like for your child to go to. public schools i'm talking about. and say we'll do our best to make that happen. the more people that get accustomed to the idea of choice among public

why you have to have vouchers. until you allow and empower the consumers with total choice you're never going to change the structure of a monopoly. that has so much money. my fave it example on the regulatory creeping is who here knows what q-seattle letter is? our voucher program in indiana the required schools are required to have a hard cop pip of that letter. this is the 21st century so hard copies are required and they get kicked out of the program if they don't have a hard copy. that's the kind of regulatory environment you can get in. remember, this is a system that's built itself up over a long period of time. and it's not just the legislators. it's not just the public school bureaucrats. it's every single committee. it's every single school committee. it's every single level of this government. so -- >> so, but just to stay with this. then, are you suggesting that this regulatory creep concern that emily flagged is not just charter schools, but private choice program? >> yeah, there's an absolute move fro

republicans have talked about introducing a very large voucher bill, a $200 voucher bill which would radically change the way these campaigns are funded. this is the slow progress for things happening on the rye. if a slice of republicans, not 40 50, 20, even 10% were to open up the possibility of that as a future -- feature of their platform then the coalition to win is possible. that's how it's always been. the progressive era, teddy roosevelt is a republican, bob lafollette is a republican. taft is a republican. the progressive movement is democrats and republicans, not just a bunch of democrats. democrats have very conservative southern democrats who are not progressive in any sense at all. so that recognition of the need to find a way to knit together different political perspectives focused on this fundamental issue is what we have to discover. it is so counterintuitive to us and it's not even clear organizationally, it's possible, i often think that the business model of progressive organizations is inconsistent with the business model of winning because the way we want to tal

vouchers where you imagine what to say that every voter gets a voucher, think of it like a target card or starbucks card, the stored value card that allows them to allocate a certain amount of money to the candidates running for office and the candidates can take those vouchers would say a 50-dollar voucher here if they agree to limit the contribution that they take to the vouchers in a small competition, let's say $100 frankly. $50 dollars would be about $7 billion in 2014 the total amount spent by congress shall candidates was 1.5 billion. which means that this is real money to point his the voucher system would mean that money comes from many people and not just the .04% were not just a .024%. so it filters perhaps because it is not everybody that is going to participate, but it isn't biased in the way that the current system is biased by allocating the funding to the tiny tiny fraction of the 1%. democrats have been pushing this idea of matching funds john sarbanes from maryland, the governor by the the people's act that basically takes the small contributions and multiplies them u
