3-27-21 The silver spoons come in all colors ad creeds. Many of Biden's top cabinet officials come from money and attended ritzy private schools that serve as the traditional breeding ground for the American elite of both parties.
“Democrats abandoned the working class many years ago,” Noam Chomsky said. Antony Blinken, Biden’s Secretary of State, was a child of privilege who graduated from NYC’s Dalton School, where tuition today runs $55,210/year. Tom Vilsack, Biden’s Secretary of Agriculture, graduated from Pittsburgh’s Shady Side Academy, a $53,000-a-year boarding school. Katherine Tai, Biden’s pick for US Trade Representative, went to the famed Sidwell Friends School in Washington, D.C. ($46,490). Susan Rice, now serving as Biden’s Director of the Domestic Policy Council, was valedictorian of National Cathedral School, a D.C day school for girls ($47,350). https://nypost.com/2021/03/27/biden-stocks-cabinet-with-prep-school-grads/

6-30-21 There are private schools all across the country, places with better resources, better teachers, better budgets. By definition these schools are not for the public. They are private. They are exclusive. They are for those who can afford better.
And then there are the ultra-elite private schools, the super schools; places where the resources, the curriculum and the tuition are comparable to the best liberal arts colleges. These are schools where lineage is a factor in the admission process. These are not schools for those who can afford better, they are schools only for those who can afford the very best. These are places of privilege.
The crown jewel place of privilege is the Dalton School; one of the most prestigious, elite prep schools in the nation, recognized globally for its visionary progressive educational philosophy. Whenever popular culture needs a recognizable reference for the alma mater of the extraordinarily rich and famous, they simply say “Dalton.” Dalton is where Anderson Cooper was a student, Jeffrey Epstein was a teacher and Robert Redford and Bob Fosse were members of the PTA. Time Magazine called Dalton “the most progressive of the city’s chic schools and the most chic of the city’s progressive schools.” Dalton, and the extraordinary places of privilege like it, are where the purebred 1% are taught and groomed to become the next generation of America’s power elite. https://central.newschannelnebraska.com/story/44219387/place-of-privilege-tells-the-story-of-elite-private-schools-diversity-origins
