I don't think this is a good idea.  Federal money should not dictate what
goes on at a private school,otherwise it's no longer a private school.
Federal vouchers are nothing more than giving back to a person what the
government took away to begin with, just they help defray the cost of the
parent who wants to send the child to a school of the parent's choice,
because the public school is not the parent's first choice.  In other words,
it's not federal money, it's private money.

To say otherwise is like saying that the government can tell Sony what kind
of music to sell because you spent your tax refund on an Eminem album.

I see your point.  The competition can be within a group of schools
that would agree to be "public" schools, while private schools would
remain selective and ineligible for vouchers.  Is that the idea?

(Let's characterize this as "Jerry is right" rather than "Gruss is wrong" :)
