What a brilliant woman.
"Policies should never entice students into greater debt. Nor should they put taxpayer dollars at greater risk. There are too many politicians today who support policy that does both," DeVos said. "Still more advance the truly insidious notion of government gift giving. We’ve heard shrill calls to 'cancel,' to 'forgive,' to 'make it all free.' Any innocuous label out there can’t obfuscate what it really is: wrong."
"The campaign for 'free college' is a matter of total government control. Make no mistake: it is a socialist takeover of higher education. Now, depending on your personal politics, some of you might not find that notion as scary as I do. But mark my words: none of you would like the way it will work."
She added that college counselors could turn into essentially "rationers" of "state-approved higher-education options." Students, DeVos warned, might not be eligible to attend certain schools or degree programs. DeVos also said that there may be cases in which a "quota for 'free college' students is full" and counselors are forced to tell students "that they now have to pay full price."
"Ultimately, nothing is 'free.' Somebody, somewhere pays the bill," she said. "And the bill is coming due. What we do next in education policy—and in public policy writ large—will either break our already fragile economy, or it will unleash an age of achievement and prosperity the likes of which we’ve never seen."
Now hold on... we have a very impressive socialist who wants to hit back...
AOC's Twitter account,
Tuition-free public college is a dangerous socialist takeover of higher ed, as opposed to the far superior capitalist takeover of higher ed, which reliably buries millions of Americans in trillions of dollars in debt & graduates them into low paying jobs without good healthcare👍🏽
The very impressive AOC, in hitting back has finally explained why she got into politics. She wasted time and money on that shitty degree and she couldn't even afford Armani pant suits and high priced D.C. condo's until she decided to become a public servant.
I mean... that is just such a great story. Being in politics really does have it's perks.
This woman is F*CK@!G impressive!
