No LOC? Looks like DCEH wasn't the only one getting favors from the Department of Education.

5zpo: oh how cute, you know how to use Wikipedia...well I know how to use the internet too...out of a $5.1 billion dollar family company your $139 million...thats barely 2%. Funny, considering they claim to be big christians that doesn't seem to line up with the expected 10%. I assure you she has extracted more tax payer money then she has EVER given to build her houses and 'christian' schools.
Please, maybe in 1960 when a million dollars was actually a large number this argument makes sense..you probably are a baby boomer which explains your complete ignorance and devotion to wealth.
How do you think Betsy DeVos made money out of this? She and her husband have given more than 139 million dollars to legitimate charities.
Cut from the same greedy cloth? Obviously, DeVos is interested in giving and fixing not taking!
Students are not going to be cheated out of their tuition. Is it being held up by all the litigation? I think so.
@We're better than this, you are right. People on both sides of the aisle cashed in on for-profit colleges. They are also cashing in on student loan servicers and other predators.
Why all the divisiveness of the for profit college failure on the tax payers dime? Business has had it chance and they failed us all. Terrible schools with little positive product output that are propped up solely with taxpayer money are a disgrace. So if you don't like Socialism don't pick and choose what kind is personally good for you. Be honest. Call it out when you see it. If you're fair minded, people may respect you and at least maybe say "well you have a point."
Betsy De Vos, the Podestas, Bill Clinton and many other politicians Republican and Democrat, in regard to for profit education, were and are pathetically all cut from the same greedy cloth. They all made and make easy money from promoting schools that they would never allow their own children to attend. To me that says it all. And please leave Obama out of it, he's gone. It's a new day and in that regard it is time to move on. Quit the blame. Quit the bickering. It's counter productive. Our tax dollars can be much better spent to meet the challenge of fostering the potential of the incredibly creative next generation students. This must be carefully and meticulously done so as to avoid the U.S. from becoming just another province of the so- called People's Republic of China with student loan interest due yesterday.
@YBb8bqE-1xut, and who are you? You sound like management--trying to rationalize your decisions. But maybe you're just a wannabe.
"What you are forgetting is some of us research the writer of given sources. David Dayen, just another angry political hack. Couldn't imagine worse credentials. Well, maybe you. To many of you are driven by your hatred. Pretty much negates any chance of an objective report. A lot of sad references to dates and groups. I see a reference dating back to 2010 in the DeVos article. Am sure that was Betsy's doing too?"
Hey Dahn,
What you are forgetting is some of us research the writer of given sources. David Dayen, just another angry political hack. Couldn't imagine worse credentials. Well, maybe you. To many of you are driven by your hatred. Pretty much negates any chance of an objective report.
A lot of sad references to dates and groups. I see a reference dating back to 2010 in the DeVos article. Am sure that was Betsy's doing too?
“It was a bunch of so called “Good Christians” who lied and s-r-w-d us over.” Sadly, true.
Edmc sold fearing Hillary would be president and hold up Bernie’s ideals on for profit education- k--l it and make higher ed a free extension of k-12.
Regardless. Edmc and DCF made their money one on a quick sale and the other by cheating students out of tuition and employees out of income.
Hey Obama hater, lets remember the schools closed under Trump, even after we were told to vote and fund the Republican Party. Commercial arts schools could not be more liberal. It was a bunch of so called “Good Christians” who lied and s-r-w-d us over.
This has nothing to do with Obama, please... smh.
@YBb8bqE-ckx, You mean accountability for misuse of federal funds?
Obama caused it all with his regulations and HATE for any education except Liberal Indoctrination Camps disguised as public colleges and universities.
