<Frankly, your suggestions and comments that we should have the state pay for yeshivos through subterfuge, chicanery and outright fraud (calling money clearly meant for tuition relief “lunch money”) are very disturbing to me. Your complete lack of respect for the rule of law and your lack of understanding of state and federal government workings (such as suggesting that the state government could just ignore the Blaine Amendment if it wanted to) is also troubling.>

It’s not fraud, if the state is willing to give the money, but will do so only if it’s called “lunch money” and THEY KNOW it’s more than lunch cost, it’s not fraud. laws are manipulated like that all the time. (and i don’t even like that word, it’s more like finding a loophole to make something work, and again it happens all the time)

the constitution says there should be a separation of church and state, why is the federal government close for a christian holiday?? are they breaking the law?

How did NYC open an Arab public school with our tax money?

maybe that’s another solution have the state build a public school, where we’ll send our kids, have them pay the full cost, and we will rent the building for a few hours a day for anything we want, which will happen to be religious studies.

I’ll say it again being this is my last post on the subject, if the state wanted to pay tuition for us, they know better than you and me how to do so, I’m not saying they should or have to, that’s a separate discussion, and not for now.
