School House Lock


There was a point in time in history where people were overwhelmed with debt, they owed the banks for their houses, cars, and even their healthcare. Today I see a similar version of mass debt dealing with the college tution. College tution is being increased while government and state funding for these schools have decreased causing people to ultimately have to take out a loan to pay for their "education." Our society and our government has stressed the importance of education, more specifically the importance of college education in a fast changing more COMPETITIVE world. But how important is education when a student must drop out of school, or cannot register for classes because they owe the school money??? The underlying meaning of this is money is more important than education, the money that you pay in order to get into school and the money that you owe after you graduate. The dollar has greater value than your mind. After you have worked hard in school, you are then forced to work harder to pay for it, it is a continuous endless cycle similar to our justice system but instead of prision they put you in a university.
