college can literally be free right fucking now as we speak but keeping young people out of loan debt isn’t a priority to the government.

let me repeat that because this information is infuriating.

college can literally be free right fucking now as we speak but keeping young people out of loan debt isn’t a priority to the government.

to break it down in the simplest way possible: 

-the government needs roughly $62 billion to make all public colleges free. 

-that’s obviously a lot of money, but not to the government, knowing they’re going to spend $716 billion on nuclear weapons.

-the government has no interest in alleviating the college financial crsis – or any other economic related problems, because they don’t care. 

this country is sick. 

Good lord.

It would cost $30 billion to end world hunger for a year. This single year of military spending for one country could give everyone in the world adequate food for over 23 years.
