DeVos is facing troubles ranging from being fined $100,000 for contempt of court to dealing with lawsuits stemming from an ineffective Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program (PSLF).

Massachusetts Senator and presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren called DeVos "the worst Secretary of Education" ever. A U.S. Magistrate in San Francisco slammed DeVos over "gross negligence" over the collection of debt payments from students of a defunct for-profit college. And a top student loan official chosen by DeVos recently quit over how "broken" the student loan system has become.

After the dust settles we're going to have to take a fresh look at rebuilding and funding the US Educational System, hopefully with an extension of the public system to include college.

Her confirmation hearing was so awkward and revealing that she should have seen the writing on the wall. The Senate basically said "you had us Megadonor."

I would think that nobody should pay off somebodyelses college debts. One person uses their loans to rent books, take classes and they eat Ramon noodles for four or five years. Then they pay back their loans. The next person uses their loans, buys books, takes classes, buys kegs, computers, nice clothes, dines out, and spends money like a Drunken Senator. The first guy should pay the other guys debts?? Oh hell no. They should each pay their own debts. BUT, if I was Trump, I would suspend all interest payments on student loans. Just do a Presidential Proclamation, all interest payments are suspended and all payments go directly into paying down your Student debt. AND.. and this will remain in effect as long as I, Trump, remain in office.

I don't know, she has done a good job at protecting elite rapist college boys from prosecution. Future Kavanaughs will have her to thank.

She was interviewed on State of the Union and didn't do well.
She isn't good at her job. Obvious she is serving her master.
Thank God most school funding come from the state level.

I'm sure there will be a lot of clips from that interview.

Just part of The Human Wrecking Balls' total destruction of another government institution.

Sinister kabbalah ? : Just the Bilderburgers !Not a conspiracy nut , But if there WERE two different fractions of a "Secret Society " fighting for control , it would play out in the news media virtually exactly as the Democrats and the Republicans infighting and absolute hatred and contempt for one another does . Dysfunctional Government or dysfunctional Secret Society ? ( Google : Bilderburgers ) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5f51PWtdTo and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlIGEZp0nLg and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuAtK8UXDuM ( Jared Kushner was just there for the last meeting . )

Paying for school is a bit unfair. You don't think so? Kid A has rich parents no need for loans etc starts life off with no debt. Kid B has upper middle class parents has either loans or living allowances paid by parents may need to work part time, starts off with debt. Kid c has no parents or parents are in poverty has loans and living expenses and needs to work overtime while going to school. Kid D, like me, goe to military for GI Bill and Army College Fund has 4-5 year set back. As you can see none of these situations are equal and only A has an advantage, B has a slight advantage. Why do the rich get an advantage? The answer is because you let them. The rich will stay rich and the poor will stay poor. Are there exceptions sure, but it is like winning the lottery. School should be a right, not a privilege according to family wealth.

To expound upon Hap's examples: Kid T pays someone to takes his SAT.

Am I alone in thinking nobodyelse should probably get some professional help? To wit, "in effect as long as I, Trump, remain in office". Illusions of grandeur? I mean who doesn't want to be in that ignorant racist's clown shoes right now.
