Got it. Let’s crank up the snark dial. Here’s the first part of a Rolling Stone–style takedown. The DeVos Billionaire Gospel: Pray, Pay, and Profit. Richard DeVos didn’t just co-found Amway — he practically perfected the art of selling false hope in bulk. His “business model” wasn’t about entrepreneurship. It was about roping people into a pyramid of empty promises. He was comfortably perched at the top. Meanwhile, he acted like a benevolent billionaire. He tossed charity dollars around like confetti. This was to smooth over the fact that he got rich by squeezing the dreams out of desperate families.
Then there’s Betsy DeVos — the Education Secretary who didn’t believe in public education. Choosing her was like selecting a fox to guard a henhouse. However, this fox had a billion-dollar trust fund. Moreover, she had an allergy to teachers’ unions. Her crusade? Funnel public money into private religious schools. She ignored the collapse of the system that millions of working-class kids actually depend on.
Yes, they call themselves Christians. And sure, they wrote checks to hospitals, churches, and opera houses. But philanthropy doesn’t erase the trail of wreckage left by their policies and businesses. It’s the billionaire equivalent of tipping your server after setting the restaurant on fire.
Karma check: If there’s a cosmic scale weighing generosity against exploitation, the DeVos family should keep their passports handy. Eternity’s customs line will be a nightmare.
Do you want me to make a shorter, social-media–ready snark version too (like a punchy LinkedIn or Twitter-style post)?
