Bingo! That's why I asked if this program is "fair"? There are a lot of folks who are not "rich" who would like vouchers to move into nicer neighborhoods than they can afford. Inch by inch, it is becoming more advantageous to be poor as the "safety net" broadens and "subsidies" (food stamps, health care, etc.) are made "policy."

Equality rather than liberty. Dependence rather than freedom. Government as master of the productive few and servant of the dependent masses. That is . . . until we are all "equal." Then it will be the master us all.
