Oh No! Not Betsey.

       Trump's latest pick for his cabinet walks on water. Can you believe it? Betsey DeVos is the new Education Secretary and she can walk on water at the same time. Some folks have been wondering, why Betsey? Well the very wealthy Betsey DeVos has been helping to fund school choice and voucher schools and that sort of activism. She's also on record as disliking public schools more than a little. Now she'll be in charge of funding public schools and at the same time depriving them of funding. Well done again, Donnie.
       The reason I mentioned her walking on water is to satisfy the ultra-right wing folks who adore and defend anyone President Elect Trump even considers appointing to a position in his administration. No matter how profane or sexist or racist or anti-education they may be. Speaking of Betsey, the one who walks on water, she also wants to educate only those with the money to afford a good private school or take money from the public school of their choice in order to defund schools to the point they will only be able to afford to teach kids to put their mark on the dotted line in order to get paid, so little Georgie will know how to spell X.
       See, the way voucher systems work is that if a student wants to get into a better school and is smart enough, then he's entitled to get a voucher to pay his tuition to the better school and his old public school gets to pay for that voucher funding. so, in theory the old public school winds up defunded eventually.
       Of course that's the whole point to the voucher system. That's why Betsey DeVos makes such a natural for Education Secretary. She hates public schools. Secretly, I don't think she wants poor kids educated at All. After All, X is good enough for them, right? Ya teach those poor kids too much, they may figure out they're not happy being poor. That's no way to keep allowing the rich to get richer. All hail dear Betsey, she walks on water in the dark of night.
