“Student loans are destroying the imagination of youth. If there’s a way of a society committing mass suicide, what better way than to take all the youngest, most energetic, creative, joyous people in your society and saddle them with, like $50,000 of debt so they have to be slaves? There goes your music. There goes your culture. There goes everything new that would pop out. And in a way, this is what’s happened to our society. We’re a society that has lost any ability to incorporate the interesting, creative and eccentric people.”

Today's generation faces an enormous battle in turning back the current assaults…” quote by Henry Giroux](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/afc/henry-giroux-945_assault_it-has-been-difficult-for-young-people-i_433313.jpg)
