“Government tends to believe in top-down solutions, and government fear...” — Betsy DeVos Quote

“Government tends to believe in top-down solutions, and government fears of bottom-up solutions.”

“President-elect Trump and I know it won't be Washington, D.C., that unlocks our nation's potential, nor a bigger bureaucracy, tougher mandates, or a federal agency. The answer is local control and listening to parents, students, and teachers.”

“Too many children today are trapped in schools that don't work for them.”

“A lot of technologies in the world were unusual in the beginning, and became standard. That's the beauty of bottom-up entrepreneurship and innovations.”

“Wealth is only ever actually created from the bottom-up, with free people employing their distinctly human creativity and finding ways to serve and employ others.”

“Managing bottom-up change is its own art.”
