Student debt at $1 trillion in 2011 - a macroeconomic factor which determines consumer spending and buying of new homes
03/11/2009
Student debt in 2011 was 5 times the level in 2000. This happens as education and technical skills are increasing in importance in determining wages and benefits, higher education in increasingly becoming unaffordable, and government help is declining because of budget cutbacks. This is affecting the image of the U.S. as a nation of opportunity.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
