My pal, Charles Bivona (@charlesbivona), spoke the best word of truth today: "Tuition is theft."
Es klingt richtig!
A non-profit organization dedicated to the eradication of all student loan debt through activism, education, and legislation; because student loan debt is dangerous to the US economy and to the health and well-being of individual Americans and their families.

In the UniTTTed $TTTaTTTe$, we have been told since infancy that "Higher education is THE KEY to your future."
Well, words ring hollow when actions run contrary. If "higher education" was so goddamn important to individuals and the nation, then legions of young people would not essentially be required to incur such mountains of NON-DISCHARGEABLE debt - in order to "move up." The current system is a tragic joke.

I have one wish in my life and it is to not have to spend every waking moment worrying about my student loan debt. Actually, I'd like to not have to dream about it every night as well. I can only hope that the stress will be merciful enough to shorten my life so that I do not have to suffer from this too long. Student loan debt has robbed so many of their youth and their futures. I am so glad that groups such as Occupy Student Debt and AEM are in existence. I look forward to getting involved and doing my part to make a change. I cannot believe that this is happening here in the "Land of the Free." Free my eye!
