I'd like to introduce a sensitive subject as neutrally as possible.

Exactly. They want to replace public education with a for-profit system. Once that transition is in place, the vouchers will become harder for certain people to get, then eventually vouchers will go away and people will be solely responsible for their children's education. This means, yet again, the poor and middle class get the shaft.
