Betsy DeVos was born exorbitantly wealthy and married into an even wealthier family. Neither she nor her children have ever taken out a loan. She has no relevant experience managing loan programs in her personal or professional life. Furthermore, she has connections to a debt collection agency, raising concerns she overturned the policy for private gain.

Crushing student loan debt has crippled Millennials. Rather than purchasing housing, current graduates typically find themselves in a paycheck-to-paycheck lifestyle. Lower wages and rising debt threaten the future of millions of graduates. Many veterans find themselves defaulting on loans from low-quality diploma mills (for-profit private "universities") such as Corinthian college.

It appears as if a born-rich billionaire has decided to target vulnerable graduates embarking upon their professional career. Student loans have eclipsed credit cards as the nation's premier debt crisis - to the tune of approximately $1.2 trillion.
