Our nation could easily ease the burden of school loans by simply making tuition at any accredited university free. The only thing blocking such a sensible investment in our future is the irresponsible vilification of deficit spending by the monopoly issuer of the currency that cannot use debt to increase the money supply. Debt is not a prerequisite to deficit spending as excess reserves must exist to purchase Treasury bonds and those can only come from deficit spending.

It is up to us, to learn how our monetary system works and the true nature of our money. It isn’t anything like what is promoted by common consensus or corrupt politicians. It’s easy to tell who does and doesn’t understand, as all of those who don’t are pitching the doom and gloom theory or our debt that is actually only an accurate accounting of our net money supply represented in Treasury bonds. It is our national “savings”, not a mortgage on our children’s futures. Taxes remove money from the private sector, not “fund” spending. Cuts to programs that protect the people and supply chains, the first go-to for conservatives and neoliberals, aren’t going to make anyone more secure. Only investments in long-range security for the people in infrastructure, education, healthcare, etc will enable Millenials to realize their potential.
