‘Newsman’ Bobby Harrison equates charter schools to taking per capita library funds to bookstore

BOBBY HARRISON: Vouchers … useable for Borders, biscuits and gravy …

The library near my home is not up to my standards so I want to convert my share of taxes used to support the system to a voucher that I can take to Borders.

It’s my money after all. I should be able to spend it the way I want.

Or my lovely wife who is fond of books on tape – or I guess books on compact disc – could take that voucher and go to Cracker Barrel that has a lease program for books on tapes where she might find a better selection.

I might be able to sneak a biscuit and gravy breakfast with some of those voucher funds if the government does not have someone to closely monitor how that voucher is being used.
