DeVos is a millionaire, and market based Neo-Liberal. She isn’t interested in democracy or the good of the whole, just the good of her and her family. Erick Prince is one of them, a military entrepreneur. What he does to the military she does to education. Private armies and private schools. Nothing else will be tolerated.
Eunice Kennedy Shriver founded the Special Olympics because of her experiences with the sister Rosemary’s disabilities. It is a shame that the current wealthy classes who now have political power don’t have her benevolence and understanding. I doubt that even if the DeVos or the Trump families had a disabled offspring they would be supportive – helps too many of the undeserving.
There are a lot of crooks in the Trump administration (and ex-members who are also crooks), but as far as sheer raw idiocy is concerned, it would be hard to beat DeVos.
Let us not forget that the DeVos family got their millions thru Amway, the infamous pyramid scheme; in other words they, including Betsy are criminals; “con-men” in particular. Without going into a lot of detail, “con-men” is the 1 criminal “profession” in which the criminals are 100% psychopaths.
What can you expect from a woman who never went to a public school, never sent her kids to a public school, and bought her way onto Trump’s (ptui!) cabinet by dumping pots of money on Republicans? (check out her donation history at opensecrets.org)
Betsy DeVos is a very special person who gives people jobs. She hired a guy whose only job is to coordinate the movements of her ten yachts so there will always be one available to her wherever she goes.
“Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!” And the disciples were perplexed at these words. But Jesus said to them again, “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” " (Mark 10.23-25)
AMWAY = SCAM Many years ago a young couple (friends) got involved with Amway. I tried to explain pyramid scheme to them MATHEMATICALLY. I had the benefit of higher education in economics etc. They kept at it; quit their jobs to pursue Amway. It became a way of life- a religion of success (evangelism?) – they flopped. Friendship over.Recently read an analysis of Amway. If I remember correctly the average yearly income from working Amway is less than $100
This woman has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. ~ She bought this position with political contributions in order to carry out her family’s long held-agenda to minimize the value of Public Education in America. So, for her to be chastising the “nouveau-riche” for buying their children’s way into colleges is laughable.

She explained that the rich would privately pay for Special Olympics if they decided to do so in their benevolence.
