I'm fully aware of where the money is going. The fact remains that he is hurting education with this move, and you still haven't addressed the fact that he is going to cause professors to leave the system and go to other schools.

As for vouchers, the evidence in Milwaukee shows that the program isn't improving education. There's really no difference between a school choice student and a regular public school student in his state's program. So he's going to take money from the university system, causing them to not be able to pay professors as competitively, so that he can fund a conservative pet cause that has made no difference in his state.
