The problem is not that they are rich. The problem is that they are all Wall Street guys. I would rather have at least 1 person who is a entrepreneur and understands how to start up a business. The majority of jobs in this country are created by small to medium size businesses. If you ever watch Shark Tank, the investors who participate are not Wall Street guys.
And the MAJOR problem with boards like this and with the vast majority of people LIKE you is you make statements without any research to find out the FACTS.
It took me less then 5 minutes to find this:
A) all WALL STREET GUYS??? of ALL the cabinet members JUST 2 have had a "Wall Street" Background: Mnuchin and Ross! NOT ALL!
B) Mattis and Kelly former generals in the military... wall street???
C) 20 year Navy SEAL??
D) Founder of Amway a company that has made more ordinary women financially secure!
E) 2 physicians, one a doctorate in veterinary one a neurosurgeon pioneered conjoined twin separation... the other 20 years as an orthopedist.
F) 2 multi-term governors
