        Hey, restaurants and food trucks have to meet food & health department standards. Shouldn't educational institutions have to as well?

        I wish the Trump admin was like a food truck we could run out of business in favor of a nicer, smarter, more efficient food truck...

        That she can bear the thought "that some are better than others" is all I need to hear. All schools need to meet the needs of all children.

        Much like her actual experience w public schools... I question whether Betsy DeVos has actually eaten at the food trucks she mentioned.

        It's simple, old Betsy wants one kind of schools for rich kids, and whatever they can come up with for the rest.

        Education is reduced to food choices. So if I go to MacDonald's, can I get a degree? Or the Tasty Taco Wagon? Is her office at Subway HQ?
