Over the summer, there was this small thing, people got really hyped over what some rich parents paid in order for their children to get decent education.
No big deal - I mean, in this country, you get as good education as you can pay for, so it's only natural that millionaires pay millions of dollars, right?
Moreover, we all know that education is not even worth the trouble. Reading wears out the flesh and keeps us away from our human duty to fear God and keep His Commandments:
Ecclesiastes 12:12-13
12 And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh.
13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
Even worse, universities often teach students the forbidden fruit of logic and critical thinking - and just think what could happen if one applies such abominations to the Holy Bible! Oh the horror!
That's why God tells us to trust Him, and not logic:
Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
Anyway. For reasons which I do not understand, some parents do anything for their children to go to college, and now one of the parents involved in this made up "scandal" has been sentenced to 14 days in prison.
There are more comments in the link, which somehow relate this harsh sentence to Huffman's "white privilege" and say that she should have received an even harsher sentence:
Now, that's just plain stupid. Yes the woman should be punished (duh - for trying to send her daughter to college rather than getting her married ASAP and thus helping her to achieve Salvation, 1 Tim 2:15), but comparing what she did, to a man stealing $50 from a bakery, now, that is outrageous! 
She didn't steal anything, she was just spreading her wealth. I thought liberals liked it when rich people spread their wealth? 
The billionaire Chinese family of former Stanford sophomore Yusi Zhao paid $6.5 million — the largest known sum in the college admissions scandal uncovered by Operation Varsity Blues — to secure her admission to Stanford.
Yusi’s father, Tao Zhao, is the chairman and co-founder of multibillion-dollar pharmaceutical company Shandong Buchang, based in Heze, China.

Felicity Huffman is inspiring outrage after the actress was sentenced Friday to 14 days in prison for her role in a brazen college admissions scandal, in which involving rich and famous families funneled cash to fixers to help their children get into the nation's most prestigious colleges and universities.
“Who will learn less? Felicity Huffman after 14 days in prison or her child after 4 years in college?” asked comedian, writer and producer Neal Brennan, while another social media user got in on the jokes with this line: “I could buy milk when #FelicityHuffman goes to jail and it would still be good when she’s released.”
Huffman, 56, was also given a $30,000 fine, one year of probation and 250 hours of community service for paying $15,000 to have her daughter’s SAT scores corrected. She must report to a facility chosen by the federal Bureau of Prisons on Oct. 25 and has asked to do her time at an all-female facility closer to her home in Southern California.

Popular TV judge, Greg Mathis, pointed out:
“Actress Felicity Huffman got 14 days in prison for paying $15,000 to boost her child’s SAT scores in a college admissions scam. Remember when a Black homeless woman named Tanya McDowell got 5 YEARS for using the wrong address to put her son in kindergarten? Why the difference?SMH,” Mathis lamented.
Many people on social media expressed how they felt Huffman's "white privilege" and celebrity status greatly influenced her sentencing.
"If only Black and Latinx Americans knew what it was like to serve 2 weeks for committing a felony," wrote a critic.
Another said: "Felicity Huffman needs to spend at least 14 months in prison not 14 days. She thinks she is above the average American & her fame & her wealth makes her privileged. If she was black or brown & poor she would have gotten 5 years at least."
"A man spent 36 years in prison for stealing $50 from a bakery. Felicity Huffman got 14 days," CNN and "The View" contributor Ana Navarro-Cardenas pointed out.
